Driftwood at Diamondhead Beach


Amazing how a piece of driftwood adds such interest to a painting. It's shape and twists give the driftwood character and almost a personality. But then, live trees are full of character as well. Must paint some live trees soon. Started a new, larger landscape today; but the trees in it are secondary,not the main attraction.

On The Beach - Kailua


Kailua Beach on Oahu has been called
one of the most beautiful beaches in the
world. I have taken many reference
photos there and can't wait to do more
paintings of the area. Yes, I work
primarily from my photos, but plan
to try more plein-air paintings in the near
future. Sometimes I just paint a scene
purely from imagination, but most
collectors appreciate a local scene.

Miniature study for
a larger painting.
Somehow this ended up being more
impressionistic than my usual realistic
style
