Mouth of the  Hopkins River trying to meet the ocean.
This is Andy's sacred place. I painted it for his birthday.

I enjoy painting real scenes from photos, but have also been experimenting with abstract representations. My nephew Orion (the one with a degree from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago) has encouraged me to do more risk taking and diverging from realism. So, these are a result of some of that experimentation.

I did this one especially for Orion because I knew he'd dig it.

As yet, unfinished painting of river in NZ. Suggestions?

Experimentation with dot painting
