Reservoir at sundown
Posted on March 9, 2023
That fleeting moment when the sky is on fire…
Inspired by the glorious, moody sunsets over a nearby reservoir.
I am finishing this 16 by 20 encaustic painting with oils and wax over a watercolor base for an upcoming show at Carrie Haddad Gallery in Hudson, New York opening on April 21, 2023.
The Evolution of Autumn Reservoir
Posted on September 30, 2022
Reservoir in Autumn is on view at the Cooperstown Art Association in Cooperstown, New York, as part of my solo show, Radiant Edges through October 28.
Here is a glimpse at the evolution of this encaustic painting starting with the watercolor base followed by layers of encaustics, India inks, and oils. A special thank you to Marie and Steve Dungan for loaning me this painting which is part of their private collection.
Out of Darkness

Out of Darkness
That moment when the light of the rising sun, filtered by the forest, pierces darkness, painting the winter landscape in blue and gold.
Inspired by a fleeting moment I glimpsed last week through my bedroom window.
The Light Slips away
Posted on January 18, 2022
India inks and oils over encaustic over watercolor.
The edges of day, last brilliant glimmers of light as the sun slips down below the Northern Catskill Mountains. I’m drawn, again and again, to this theme of ephemeral, temporal beauty and wonder as the light whispers at dusk and dawn. Working with these layers of translucent media allows much depth, atmosphere, and light.
Recently on display at The Carrie Haddad Gallery in Hudson, New York, this 8 x 8 painting has found a new home.
