Congress Avenue After a Rain is a 16x20 acrylic painting that was a lot of fun to paint. The reference photograph was amazing, with the buildings reflected in full on the wet street. This is from the Congress Avenue bridge in downtown Austin, looking north. We could use some rain!!  

My entry into the 1st Annual Travis Country Art Show is called " Ice Cream at Hilltop ." Artists were asked to depict a summertime activity we enjoy in our neighborhood. Is there any better refreshment during the summer than enjoying an ice cream cone before heading back into the pool? Art will be displayed at the Hilltop Pool on July 4th.

Trying a new technique and a new style for fun. The result was "Fire in the Sky," and explosion of a sunset over mountains and a little stream.  

A piece of art, paint on canvas Colors chosen to show the famous harbor At his loveliest Where fishing boats sail toward faraway hills And tourists mingle with Italian locals Seeking a courtyard where they can rest and enjoy View of the teal waters And the red and orange and yellow and pink houses A prelude, a wish, a longing For a time when I can visit Portofino, alive and splendid

 Blue Bicycle at the Beach is an 16x20" acrylic painting. I repurposed an old canvas my daughter, Jill, gave to me of a painting she needed to let go of. I hope you like it!
