Dog Beach

oil on canvas 30"x40"

The dogs at this beach are euphoric. They can run off the leash and splash around in the surf. I find their attitude infectious. If I'm feeling grouchy, I visit Dog Beach at Del Mar, CA.

I'm so happy to be published in one of my favorite magazines.

The Creature's Teapot

I made this teapot for a teapot show. I was inspired by the Creature from the Black Lagoon which was filmed here in Florida. It actually functions but I never use it. Maybe I should serve green tea in it.

The Cuddler with Kitten

Ceramic with Glaze
Here is the female version of "The Cuddler" You can see she is cuddling a kitten. See how the kitten reaches out its paw? Don't worry, cuddle fish don't eat kittens.

Here's a back view so you can see the mottled effect of the glaze.

The Cuddler

Painting 16"x20"
I painted this for a show called Manimals. I decided to do a Cuddlefish Man. I think he's kind cute.

Key Largo Sunset II

Pastel 19"x22"
Another sunset in the Keys. My dad used to say it was one of the few places where you could catch as sunrise over the water and a sunset over the water within walking distance.
