ACEOs (Art Cards, Editions, and Originals) are baseball card sized art works, 2.5 in x 3.5 in. Tangerines and tangelos are some of my favorite foods. Like sunshine in your hand. Painted from life.

The Open Road

Welcome to my blog. I’ve recently starting painting everyday and I plan on posting my paintings and my progress on this site. I’ve been creating art my whole life but only started painting with oils a few years ago. I’m a native Floridian and although I’ve lived in California, Colorado, Connecticut, and Vermont, I keep coming back to Florida. I love the lushness, the heat, and yes, even the humidity. I frequently find myself painting citrus and tropical fruits mostly because I really enjoy eating them.

I love the open road. Driving across Alligator Alley a number of times over the last few months I was really inspired by the clouds and the promise of the highway and would have loved to stop in the middle of the fast lane and started painting. Someday soon I’d like to paint some large highway canvases. In the meantime I’ve started this blog with this miniature ACEO sized (2.5″ x 3.5″) painting. Please feel free to leave comments. I’d like to hear what you have to say.
