SUNLIT II

SOLD

The second Sunlit painting in a series of interiors that celebrate the warmth of sunlight rushing through beautiful French windows. This lovely room sports beautiful ornate mirror frames and a glimpse of a book on the foot stool, reminiscent of all the most wonderful luxuries life can possibly offer!

VYF ROSE

SOLD

VYF ROSE...or five roses is a color study where I tried to really intensify the temperature in a way that looks effortless yet took focus not to push either the composition or color balance too far and in the process retain tension and intrigue.

DAPPLED LIGHT

SOLD

DAPPLED LIGHT stream through the large branches of Californian oaks whenever one goes to The Corkscrew Café. This quaint restaurant lies in the heart of Carmel Valley Village, CA where the sun ALWAYS shines! And so I tried to capture it in this scene by juxta positioning intense yellows against cool blues.
