The instructor, Tanshopan was a delight and had many suggestion for me to discover ways for me to express myself through my paintings. It was a perfect setting in Bassett Park on a sunny day to share ideas. I highly recommend taking a class from Tanshopan. She is very creative and thoughtful.

Title or Location: Diver Restored
This piece was painted to honor the craft of mechanical watches, which has survived for centuries and even through the digital and A.I. age. This design was based on the 1953 Blancpain 50 Fathoms, the first diver's watch. I wanted to capture the spirit of the design, as it is brought to original specs and into the sea environment for which it was engineered. The depiction of light through fluid, and the refraction and distortion of solidity, was a technical challenge that I happily explored.

Title or Location: in a not so secret garden
Our daughter Shawn was visiting from Los Angeles which she calls home these days. We have a garden of a sort in our front yard and Shawn was looking over some of the plant life wearing a black broad brimmed hat and a long matching dress. I ran inside our house to grab my old camera and asked her to not move for a few seconds. The dappled light in the front yard completed the composition. There is a small 12x12 that Shawn took back to LA and this 20x20 version. This was featured in the Mn State F
