Downtown Chicago

Original Painting - Acrylic on canvas 40x30
Flashing lights, city traffic, pedestrians and noise are all part of the urban scene as the denizens of the concrete jungle prowl the streets.

Christmas at the Farm

Original Painting - Acrylic on Canvas 20x30
 
I remember the ride to my parents’ old farmhouse near Johnson's Creek, Wisconsin. Singing along with the Christmas carols on the car radio, bundled up in our winter coats as my wife, Nancy, and I traveled down the snow covered back roads with a car full of kids, plus dog and presents for the family. There was love and laughter and food and drink at the end of the gravel road and I guess I thought it would never change. But, everything changes. Loved ones are gone, youth is gone, even the farm belongs to someone else now …at least my Christmas memories still remain.

Central Park Gapstow Bridge NYC

Original Painting - Acrylic on canvas 20x16
 
This iconic bridge in central park has delighted visitors from around the world. The backdrop of New York City with lights gleaming is a pleasure to paint and I have painted it numerous times.
