About me

Location Portland, Oregon
Introduction This is discussion of my paintings and process as a painter. I hope you will join in by making comments. I took up painting in 1996 and went back to college as a full time student in studio art for 5 years. I had prior careers in medicine and computer science.

You can learn more about my exerience in learning to paint at the bottom of the May 2006 entries to this blog.

More of my paintings can be seen by clicking on the earlier March and April archive sections below.

Most of the May entries are from my own collection because they are among my favorites and they were available to be photographed. Many of paintings in the March and April entries are available.

Please comment on the paintings or on my comments by clicking on the word "comment" at the bottom of each entry. I encourage you to click once or twice on any paintings to get an enlarged view or see detail.

I thank Rusty Whitney for his care and expertise in photographing the 2003 & 2004 works. (WhitneyEventPhoto.com)
