      I've been spending the last year working with computer generated artwork (coded in the processing language) and realizing that with a pen plotter. I've also started working with foraged / natural pigments, and once spring is here I expect that to take center stage.

      Here's a few of my personal highlights.

      foraged pigment (ochre from a local stream in this case) on paper

                I'm an art teacher for a public middle school. Each year, we have a staff exhibit at the Delaplaine Visual Arts Center. My painting was featured in their magazine last year, and this year I found my painting framed on their wall for the exhibit today.

                            Here is another one from the same year 2009. This one and about a ten or so others were painted for a duo show with an old painting partner of mine. It was at Classic Electric Tattoo in Frederick, Maryland. I remember the owner didn't stay for the opening because he and his lady were leaving for a road trip to Dollywood. He made sure he left me a packed bowl in the back room though...he's the one who tattooed my back peice.

                            This was my favorite one along with the one in the photo I previously posted. That one is of a sculptor named Wireman. He died a few years ago. I'm glad neither of them sold and that I still have them. Most of my work sold back then.

                                  Fished out some more...most of these are large scale oil and acrylic paintings. I used to be completely obsessed and fixated on painting and one day being an artist. I loved painting more than anything...but I've only made one since 2019. Thinking of starting again this summer on multiple canvases painted outdoors on our property.
