This is the latest painting off of my easel. Â It is a 4″x6″ painting of a mute swan titled, “Serenade in Blue”. Â I always find it so stunning to observe the colors reflected in white animals and birds. Â The way the light plays on the surface is nothing short of magical and always a challenge to capture in paint.
The painting will debute at the Weatherburn Gallery’s invitational holiday miniature show, “It’s A Small World” in Naples, Florida. Â http://weatherburn.com

This is my newest video on YouTube - “On Golden Pond - Trumpeter Swans” traditional miniature in watercolor on board. Â The original is a part of a collection of my paintings being exhibited at the Whistle Pik Galleries’ Christmas Miniature Show this year, a contemporary miniature art exhibit in central Texas. Â (I’m very pleased to be a resident artist at the gallery. Â Please drop in if you have the chance…they are some of the nicest people in the business.

This is a new miniature painting of a pair of Trumpeter Swans ("On Golden Pond") in watercolors painted for the Seaside Art Gallery’s International Miniature Exhibition (their 17th annual) in Nags Head, North Carolina….one of 3 4×6 miniatures that I have in this year’s show.
"The Overseer - Cougar" & "Shattered Silence - American Bald Eagle" - both 4×6 watercolor miniatures that are also on exhibit at the Seaside show.
The exhibit just opened on the 5th and will run through the end of May. http://seasideart.com/

I am pleased to post that this painting, "Symphony of Light", watercolor on ivorine, was awarded a top honor at the Miniature Art Society of Florida’s 33rd annual exhibition - "Best Work by a Young Artist" (Best of Show for artists 35 or younger). This is the second time I have been given this award, which I am very honored for especially being that I am still a ‘20 something’.
It is quite an honor to have been given such high awards at both the MASF and MPSGS this year. Many thanks to both societies. As our elite miniature art exhibitions in the United States, each of them are surpassed by none. I greatly appreciate all that they do to preserve miniature art and it’s roots.
(Also, I want to post a congratulations to my sister, Bonnie, for her award of "Best Animal" at the CPA International Miniature Exhibition in PA with her beautiful Asian leopard portrait. I am very proud of her. )
