We are all on our way somewhere. All things are on their way somewhere.

On the horizon is the flat and wide bay.

A golf course on the moon???

The sky above and the sea below filled with life.

One of a series of paintings of the ever-shifting dunes in the Moroccan Sahara.

Where you will go after living a good life.

Everything is changing, the light, the mood.

Storm moving out to sea.

Spring runoff and seven lace-like waterfalls.

Three stalwart trees guarding the point.

The sun, the focus of all life on our planet.

The ultimate charm of the American Midwest landscapes.

The beach, where it all begins and ends for me.

Irish coast inspiration.

From a deep place in the unconscious describing an untouched place of serenity in deep woods.

From the cool green depths to the sky...

I am always impressed by a stand of trees. All part of the same family no doubt. Fascinating.

A Berber man composing his headwrap in the wind. A commission by a fellow traveler to the Sahara in Morocco.

Something powerful about the confluence of two great bodies of waters.

I think about the 4,000 mile solo hitchhiking trip I took in 1972 to West Coast and back.

The flat landscape of the East End of Long Island produces calming images of reverie and quiet.

Trees in perfect synch with each other. Are they all related? They must be.

I know there is one in there somewhere.

Wish I could…

A landscape I never actually experienced in life came alive on this canvas. A deep sense of peace and serenity. All is right with the world here on Cherry Lane.

I have no idea how this title came to be. But It is a soothing painting.

End of a long day, time to take stock of all the good things that happened.

I, along with a group of people, once witnessed a series of UFOs in the night sky over Lake Cayuga in Ithaca, NY. We had many questions, but very few answers.

Contemplative and calming. Part of the “Sun Series" of paintings.

The Amazon region is a place of life filled with all kinds of colorful critters.

Like a giant and soft watercolor with a spiritual quality that changes with the ambient light.

A special moment if you are lucky enough to witness.

Visiting the Amazon region in Peru makes you think all kinds of new thoughts.

Off in the distance living their best tree life, undisturbed except for conditions which they are designed to endure. Such a great sense of peace.

Sometimes a painting is made and lives for many years and then the artist chooses to obliterate it and create something completely new and different…although there can be ideas from the previous painting that survive. This is true for this painting.

All bark and no bite…um, maybe not.

Full blooded intensity of big nature sky and water.

I guess they are friends of the shark, until they aren’t.

Felt like it painted itself on its’ own.

A metaphysical moment in nature where no human can deny the serenity and beauty of nature.
