There is a reception this evening (Thursday, March 4) for my small solo exhibition at Ann Long Fine Art in Charleston, South Carolina.

		<description><![CDATA[Every year on my birthday I paint a self portrait. Many I&#8217;ve abandoned and destroyed, some years I skipped it, and I lost a hard disk a few years back with the only images of some of them. These are the ones that survived. It&#8217;s interesting for me to look back over the years to [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;ve used Piero for all my framing needs for about 15 [...]]]></description>

The area around the town of Trevi in Southern Umbria really amazed me for it&#8217;s picturesqueness when I was in Spoleto a few years back.

I&#8217;ve tried to paint her from life a couple of times but she tends to curl up into a little black ball and generally resists any attempt of mine to keep her looking even slightly picturesque. The other day I [...]]]></description>

But it&#8217;s because I have a few long posts I&#8217;m working on which require lots of research and learning on my part, and I&#8217;m crazy busy at the moment preparing for shows this year. In the meantime here are a few more plein air sketches from winter [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On the shortest day of the year, I thought it would be fitting to do a post about using artificial (or electric, artificial sounds so pejorative) light for painting.
For many years I would only work under natural light, but I was losing so much painting time in the winters that I needed to do something. [...]]]></description>
