Some Works from 2003  

My newest paintings appear first.

I'm leaving for a month in Brazil tomorrow. My suitcase is painted and I'm taking a series of paintings of the Carnival in Brazil which were inspired by a request from my niece.
Once I got started it was hard to stop, but it's time to pack up and head south.
