Watercolor Magazine: 25 Artists To Watch

Watercolor Magazine just published its 25th Anniversary Issue, and to celebrate this milestone, the fall issue includes a "25 Artists to Watch" feature. I was very honored to be included in this and to offer some of my thoughts about water media and my artistic process. You can find Watercolor Magazine in the Art section of Barnes & Noble's periodicals and elsewhere.

Ocean State of Mind

In the time since my last update I've experienced a swift change in scenery. In July, I left my job and home in Manhattan to partake in a year long painting excursion with a shift of my home base to Providence, Rhode Island.

While I don't intend to paint scenic New England exclusively, it can be hard to resist. Here then are two recent paintings of my all time favorite spot in the Ocean State, Beavertail Lighthouse, located within the beautiful island setting of Jamestown, RI. Standing heroically at the top of it's jagged coastline since 1856, amidst the keeper's house, its light shines 24 hours a day.

Dream House (Dream On)

Dream Car

This Mustang is not my dream car in the figurative sense (that would be a 1961 E Type Jaguar/Batmobile/Wagoneer hybrid), but more literally it is the car of my dreams: When I came upon it in this setting a familiarity came over me. There was that undeniable sense of deja vu, or maybe more simply, it was just a dream.
