My abstract paintings are usually based on one or more of my photographs. I rely on my sense of spatial relationships, color, contrast, composition and texture while preparing and completing one of my paintings. For some of my larger paintings I will first complete a smaller "sketch" painting. Those "sketch" painting usually are not offered for sale as I like to keep those for my private collection. A few paintings that are purely abstract are also included in my exhibits and may also be found on this web page. If you choose to acquire one of my paintings please contact me by phone or email. The price of each painting includes the cost of shipping (UPS Ground Service) and applicable Kansas sales tax. The description of each painting will tell you if a frame is being included. Once I have received your purchase request, we will confirm the price, payment method and shipping date. You will be allowed 14 calendar days from the date the painting is delivered to your mailing address to review the painting. If you are not satisfied with my painting within that 14 day period you may contact me regarding the return of the painting the full refund of the purchase price you paid. If returning the painting you will be responsible for paying the return shipping cost. Your full refund will be sent when I received the returned painting (undamaged).
"August 2009" -- From my private collection. This 22" high x 28" wide acrylic abstract on canvas has not been previously shown in an exhibit. It is framed in a narrow black set-back wood frame. The top of the abstract sun is gold metallic leaf with added color highlights added. This a very nice sized painting that has added interest where ever I hung it my house. It would also be a nice addition to an office setting. Price: $1,400
Kansas Abstract:
8" x 38" Acrylic painting on rice and tissue papers over wooden frame.
The origin of this method is from my post graduate art classes at Ft. Hays
State University in the 1970-71. Textures are from the process of
preparing the paper surface so that it is durable and the applied heavy
acrylic material and paint.
My
painting, “Kansas Afternoon Sun” will be included in an exhibit as the Topeka
Symphony Orchestra presents a special concert celebrating the sesquicentennial
of Kansas statehood at 7:30 pm on Saturday, January 15, in the White Concert
Hall on the Washburn University campus.

sold from my exhibit at Hot
Java on Gage Boulevard was my Circa 1997 carved acrylic painting MCMCVII-2

mid-ground is a ridge of built up gold metallic leaf. This
