I was recently asked to do a design for Fisherman’s Picnic. Fisherman’s Picnic is the big celebration that my town, Grand Marais, MN, holds the first weekend of August every year. This watercolor with ink is based on the design from the 1956 Fisherman’s Picnic button.

This abstract painting is actually based on the ground plan for a stone arrangement in a small Japanese garden that you might find on an apartment balcony. The blue square represents a stone basin and the one with the red dot represents a stone lantern.

This afternoon I shot this picture of my friend Susan’s whippets, Wings and Roxie, when she took them to the field to chase Frisbees. These dogs are so graceful and fast, it’s a thrill to watch them run.

Today I start my new job at the Gunflint Mercantile. In addition to selling fudge, they will be carrying some of my new moose paintings.

Snick, this is the one I was painting on when we were talking on the phone last night.

My paintings can be seen at Coho Cafe (at Bluefin Bay), The Pie Place, Great Northern Gallery, Angry Trout Cafe, and The Betsy Bowen Gallery.

The work at Coho is mostly abstract in acrylic and watercolor. Almost all of my paintings at The Pie Place are white pines in acrylic and watercolor. Great Northern Gallery has a variety of paintings in a variety of mediums. My work at the Angry Trout is bright abstracts on wood featuring mostly otters and fish. My work at the Betsy Bowen Gallery is acrylic “word paintings.” Please feel free to email me or comment to this post for more information.
