Singing Band-Aids

5"x5" Ink and watercolor on paper

I have these great animal print band-aids that gave me the idea for this "get well" drawing. I'm sending this card to a few friends who might need a little laugh while they're getting better.

The Music Room

This is a little study I did in preparation for a larger painting which I'm working on.

Geraldo & Me

20"x16" Oil on stretched canvas

Our friend, Chris, who served in Iraq sent us a photo of himself and Geraldo a couple years ago. I immediately wanted to paint this scene because it's just so surreal, complete with Geraldo wearing rose-colored glasses. Our sincerest "thank you" goes out to Chris and all those brave men and women who have served in this war. Welcome home.

"Hearts & Flowers" Art Show

We are happy to announce that our "Holiday Gallery" has become a more permanent fixture, at least for the time being. We've secured a month-to-month lease in the Collective Copies building in Belchertown and have renamed ourselves Cold Spring Gallery. Our first art opening reception is next Saturday, Feb. 9 (please double-click on the image above to see it larger).

Pitchers

Oil on canvas panel

I like to call this one my "Peggi Kroll-Roberts" because she helped me with this one. I love the texture and values.
