Up for auction: Interior with Chair

I want to congratulate my friend, Micheal Bruce for his winning bid on "Slow Like Honey!"

This week, I'm reaching way back in the archives and auctioning off a painting I did in 2002. I did this one before art school, and it was a real breakthrough for me both technically and conceptually. I took a lot of risks, pulling away from traditional representation and learned in the process.

This painting was influenced by one of my favorite artists, Mark Rothko and I used his technique of placing down washes of color on top of dry underlayers, then scrubbing them off to reveal the colors underneath.

I've enjoyed this painting for years, but it's been placed in storage. Which is why I'm happy to give it a new life in a new home.


“Interior with Chair” is an ORIGINAL oil on canvas.


This piece is a BIG 36x24", on high quality cotton canvas. It is framed in a modern brushed aluminum frame with 2" edge. The painting is signed and dated.

To bid on this lovely beast, visit my Facebook page. Friend request me if you aren't already one. Just comment on the album to place your bid, it's that easy! Auction ends at the stroke of midnight of April 12th PST

A paypal invoice + shipping will be sent to the high bidder via private email.

Slow Like Honey

She's up for auction on Facebook this week, in a full size (22x28") framed giclee on canvas. Hand embellished, signed and numbered (#2/195)

This is one of the original 3 that launched my nude series in 2008. Painting the body angle was a struggle, and there was a moment when I considered abandoning the painting. I remember staring at the unfinished nude, thinking it needed something...and then hibiscus flowers were on the canvas within minutes. People often mention Hawaii when they see this one, but for me, the hibiscus flowers come from my home in Florida.

The original sold quickly, within a month from completing the painting. In fact, every one of the original three flew out the door. Which is why I'm happy to be able to reproduce Slow Like Honey in a fine art giclee.

If you'd like to place a bid on this giclee, you can find the Facebook auction here. Just comment to bid. Or friend request me if you aren't already one :)
Auction ends April 5th!
