Vancouver 🇨🇦 based full-time oil painter. SFCA. There's pretty much just art here. A bit of my own work and reposts of other peoples' art that I like too. - "A little song, a little dance, a little gesso down your pants."
An unexpected find in a local curio shop this morning. I thought it might make an interesting addition to the studio's inventory of still-life props. Unusual inscription. Excellent craftsmanship. The provenance is a bit murky. Had to haggle a bit as the shopkeeper kept referring to it as “precious.”
Just putting the final touches to a series of new cherry paintings for the upcoming Harmony Arts Festival. #artyear #blueskyart #oilpainting #stilllife #birdart
8x8, oil on ACM. This is “A Grape First Impression”. NFS #art #artshare #blueskyart #oilpainting #stilllife #fineart
Fresh out of the tin... 8x8, oil on ACM (NFS). Wouldn't it be grand if life were really like a '70s sitcom? TV dinners, witty rejoinders at the ready, all problems solved in 30 minutes and, in the background, always the "Canned Laughter". #artshare #artyear #stilllifeoilpainting #art #blueskyart
Sorry to be so quiet on here but I am not able to log in to my account on my desktop anymore. 2FA codes never arrive and I can’t change anything on the mobile app. Tried tech support but no luck.
Top 8 social media images for this past year from all platforms. It'll make more sense to you if you just hum the theme from The Brady Bunch to yourself while watching this. 😄 Happy New Year! #artvsartist2025 #artvsartist #art #oilpainting #stilllife #blueskyart
I stopped taking on painting commissions back in 2022, but made one exception this year for a fellow creative who needed a special gift for a friend. 8x8, oil on ACM - my first time painting a piano. #artshare #artyear #blueskyart #art
Framing day in the studio. Starting with an 8x8 and then moving on to the more involved process for larger paintings. A perfect activity for these in-between-xmas-and-new-years-eve twilight zone type days. 😄 #artshare #art #blueskyart #processvideo
One last piece before locking up the studio and heading to the kitchen to start the holiday preparations: 15x22, oil on aluminum composite panel. This is "The Dinner Party". #artshare #artadventcalendar #oilpainting #art #oilpainting #blueskyart #artyear
10.5 x 14 - oil on ACM panel. This began with just two northern flickers and the working title "Drinking Buddies". But I didn't like the composition. Enter the dunking bird. Thought you were just going to join the party? Oh no buddy, this is "The Intervention". #artadventcalendar #art #artshare
Winter from this sidewalk perspective, in the neighborhood where I used to walk my dog, CT. 6”x6” oil
Fresh off the easel - 18x12, oil on ACM. This is "Timing Is Everything". #blueskyart #art #oilpainting #artshare #artyear #artadventcalendar
Fresh off the easel - 12x11, oil on ACM. This is "Another Fish Tale". #blueskyart #art #oilpainting #artshare #artyear
Inessa Morozova (Ukrainian Artist, born 1981) "Washing Dishes", 2022. ❤️ Oil on Canvas, 80 × 70 cm.
Across cultures and traditions, these early November days are a time for remembrance - of saints, of souls, of those we’ve loved and lost. Death may be certain but, while we’re here, we should also remember to live. 8x8, oil on ACM. This is "Memento Vivere". #art #artshare #artyear #oilpainting
Sold this one at the West Fine Art Show in September - Oil on ACM. With thanks/apologies to #Vermeer, this is "Chick With A Pearl Earring". #art #artshare #blueskyart #artyear
Another recent sale from the studio aviary - 8x8, oil on ACM: "I Got The Blues". (sold) #oilpainting #stilllife #blueskyart #art #artshare #artyear #fineart #realism
These two little pieces were adopted by good friends of mine. For some reason, pairing them up had never occurred to me. It's great when collectors show you new ways of thinking about your work. These are "Box Spring" and "Dantealion". #artshare #art #blueskyart #oilpainting #fineart #flowerpower
Wasn't sure about this composition so it was really gratifying to have a collector enthusiastically snap it up within minutes of it going up on the booth wall. 8x8, oil on ACM - this is "Fast Food". #artshare #blueskyart #art #oilpainting #fineart #artyear
Another recent sale from earlier this summer. 8x8, oil on ACM. This is "Ball Bearing". #blueskyart #art #oilpainting #artshare #artyear #fineart #artcollectors
A couple of recent 8x8 sales from the festival booth in West Vancouver in early August. "A Plum Assignment" and "Very Cherry Sundae". #stilllifeart #oilpainting #blueskyart #art #painting #realism #artshare #artyear
“In Quaking Gold,” oil on linen, 12”x10” is my latest —and final— painting for my show at Coeur d’Alene Galleries opening this Friday, July 11th! Reception from 5-8pm. #ravens #aspens #wildlifeart #birdart #animalart #westernart #oilpainting
