I’ve been going through my studio and finding small pieces that I had forgotten I had! What a treat to discover them again. I have photographed them and placed them in my eBay gallery.
This painting I did with gold leaf on canvas, lots of texture, and collage.
It was inspired by the Ajanta Caves in India. This piece can be used as a meditation focal. It was painted in 2006. This is the first I have photographed and shown it. 8 x 10 x 1″ Click for large detail pictures.
“Awakening”

This painting was a collage piece, with gold leaf, dollar bills, and selected images on canvas, very interesting textures. From 2007. Click to see the larger pictures.
“American Trust” 10″ x 10″

This small pastel is on live auction right now, with only a few days left. It is a pastel on hand-made bark paper, and comes framed. It was inspired by the first art objects found, most of which were carvings in stone. This depicts an ancient stone horse head fragment.
“Horsehead Fragment II”

Recently I was commissioned to paint a pastel on hand-made bark paper, in the SW series style. My client wanted a painting similar to one that he had seen online and fallen in love with, so I am doing a smaller version with some changes, of this piece.
“Leaping Antelope”
pastel
24×32″ Diptych

I will be framing the art as well, floated on suede mat in a shadow-box type frame.
Leaping Antelope was an Indian warrior captured and held in one of the many calvary forts on the plains.
