Thirteen new and recent paintings are featured in my show 'Wavelengths' at the Bainbridge Performing Arts Gallery for the month of May. I'm thrilled to see this collection of seascape-based paintings hanging together in this beautiful space here on Bainbridge Island. 

On Friday, May 6, an opening reception was held during the Bainbridge Island First Friday Art Walk - it was a lovely evening and a nice opportunity to talk about these pieces with friends, family and the local community. The show continues until the end of May. Bainbridge Performing Arts is located at 200 Madison Avenue North, Bainbridge Island, WA 98110. Gallery hours are Tuesday - Friday, 12 - 5 pm and 1 hour prior to each performance. These paintings are now available for purchase in my online shop.

'Camouflaged Sea', 2016. 24" x 24", water soluble oil on canvas.

'Silver & Gold', 2016. 20" x 20", water soluble oil on canvas.

'Hot Water', 2016. 18" x 24", water soluble oil on canvas.

I'm happy to be showing ten of my paintings during the month of March here on Bainbridge Island at the Bainbridge Island Public Library. The paintings in 'Illuminated' focus on the interaction of sunlight, water, clouds, and sky. Bold and bright saturated color juxtaposed against soft neutral shades creates movement and echoes the shifting light found in nature. All ten pieces are available in my online shop.

Recently ATG Stores, Decorist and Porch came together to makeover a home on Seattle's Queen Anne Hill and I was honored to contribute 3 paintings for the event. 8 rooms were 100% virtually designed by 8 designers and the result was both beautiful and cohesive. This video provides a peek into the home as well as the Cocktail Party where I was able to see the home in person. As you can tell from this video, the view of downtown Seattle is jaw-dropping. And be sure to look for my painting, 'Gleam III', in the boy's bedroom about half-way through:

Pulp Designs commissioned a large painting for the home office based on my Minted print, 'Night Clouds'. I created this 36" x 48" piece titled, 'Into the Night' and I was blown away when I saw it in the finished office. It was definitely one of my favorite rooms in the home.

Melissa Schenck commissioned this painting from my Gleam series for the boy's bedroom. Called 'Gleam III', it measures 36" x 36" and was perfectly complemented by her masculine/nautical design.

My final contribution for the home was chosen by Katja O'Brien for the girl's bedroom. The room is light and airy and my painting 'Morning' looked so sweet hanging next to this fun swing. Such a great room - I know my daughter would love it!

The remaining rooms in the home were designed by Alexa Hampton - master bedroom, Brian Paquette - living room, Ashley Redmond - kitchen, Massucco Warner Miller - family room, and LindHesse Design - foyer. And if you're like me and can't get enough visual inspiration, check out Sunset Magazine's blog for more photos and details.

What a pleasant surprise to see my print in print! Convergence I, available on Minted, is featured in the January issue of HGTV Magazine. It really looks great in this remodeled kitchen/dining area and I love how they tied all the colors in the room together - especially that pop of yellow.
