Posted Jan 28, 2013 from Seattle, WA. The Poulsbo painting, which can’t be titled “Last Tango in Poulsbo,” because the name on the boat “Tango” in the current version isn’t quite legible, will be at the store by Jan 29, 2013 in an 18 x 24...

Posted from Seattle Jan.17, 2013 I started a painting last year of boats in the Poulsbo Marina and I thought it might turn into a really good painting. I made a movie about it but ended up just saying that I hadn’t maybe finished it but...

Posted Nov. 28, 2012 from Seattle, WA A 14 x 18 poster of Seabirds of the Northwest has been on my mind for years now. Indeed, in 2009 I went to the trouble of making cutouts of Seabirds and posting them to a board for...

posted Oct 12, 2012 from Seattle, WA Since I’m running out of notecards, I’m going to have to publish a new batch. I’ve been painting lately with one eye on the goal of good notecard-paintings. But there’s an ever-present danger here. Inevitably, when you paint, you...

Posted Sept. 21, 2012 from Seattle, WA Maybe about 20 years ago I did a painting on Gatorboard. I had trouble in one area—probably some animal’s head—and there the gatorboard bubbled up. I told myself: Take Gatorboard off the list of usable substrates. But recently I had...
