Our Special Place

Commission piece / 11x14 / SOLD

I created this piece for a women who gave it as a gift to her husband, who comes from a very close family, His parents are deceased, and he has two older brothers and a younger sister. His father purchased this ground about 70 years ago, maybe more, and put an old abandoned street car on the property.

This was a place where they played, grew up, learned to fish and hunt, and still enjoy to this day, despite the flooding, and the loss of their clubhouse. Now they just put trailers out. They love to watch the barges go by and enjoy a nightly fire.

The only photo of the clubhouse was in Black & White. I combined the photos provided to me of her husband fishing, a sunset, campfire, 20-year-old photo of her son watching a barge and the clubhouse.

Ste. Genevieve Second Street

I love Ste. Genevieve in the fall. The downtown historic district has quiet streets and large old trees. This 3D piece was created straight from a photo I took.  I added some paint to the surface, matalic pigment to the epoxy and a couple of REAL leaves from those trees in the photo. Like most all my work, the surface looks like glass.

I love the colors in this one. The original photo was taken at St. Louis Botanical Garden’s Shaw Nature Reserve. I feel that this is a religious piece to me. I used oil paints under and on top of the epoxy, which gives the surface a shiny and mat look. I also have metallic pigments mixed into the surface.

The sides to this piece are about 2 inches wide. It can hang straight from the frame without any hanging device.

A beautiful fall day in Ste. Genevieve caused the reflections on these windows. I painted some highlights and added several REAL leaves from that tree into my art.

A New Commission Piece

SOLD • 9×12• $225.00

I did this for Ali Cavanaugh, who is a fellow artist. You will notice that this is a very different color palette than my other pieces. I picked a color palette that was more like Ali’s own art. Ali is on the left. A painting of her daughter, who has been Ali’s inspiration, is on the right. Her son is above her and in the center, her religion is what gives her strength. Please go see Ali’s website to see her beautiful watercolor paintings. I have her link posted at right.

I love this piece. Fall leaves come out to play, then slowly disappear as winter appears. Sometimes we feel as though we are falling apart and can’t keep a handle on all the changes – good or bad – taking place around us.

There are many faces within the formation of the leaves.

This 3D piece is composed of images from 5 different cities from Florida & Missouri. Jackson M0., Cape G. Mo., Witenburgh, Ste Genevieve, Mo. and Fort Pierce Fl.  I love this piece, it has a lot of memories in it. The bottom right is sliced in different angles reflecting curtains blowing in the wind. Top right, also sliced, has two different faces in it. My art work has a VERY high gloss to them so it makes it difficult to capture it in the camera to put on the web. I am including other close-up photos to view but please contact me if you would like other photos emailed to you to see.

I love the movement of the dancer’s outfits. The other two paintings have sold from this series that I did of the Nutcracker performed in Farmington, Mo. My process starts with a photo I took attached to a canvas board. Then I painted on the photo and all around it, but left one part of the original photo untouched by paint. Can you guess where that is?  Then I applied the epoxy while the paint was still wet which caused the ripple effect you can see in the photos. I also applied powder metallic pigments within the epoxy, which adds a sparkle to the surface. I took a lot of time working on the frame too as part of the painting because I attached the canvas board to the frame permanently.
