"Waiting for her Scarlet Sails" 11x14 oil on canvas board
This piece I started plein air a couple of years ago and forgot about it , and recently was feeling strange urge to finish it..I'm sure it's just sublimation of my own desires and wishes ...It's good to dream , and normal to wait ..for your "Scarlet Sails" ..For those who is unfamiliar with Russian literature of 20th Century, I will make a little lyrical digression - "Scarlet Sails" is a great romantic novel by Russian author Alexander Green about everyday miracles, myths of Love , about how important to believe, dream and trust and that we all should wait for "Scarlet Sails" ...I still do..and won't settle for less :-))

Change of heart..
I went to a beautiful Vashon Island over weekend to switch up my art work at the little island gallery and to paint beaches . If you, by chance, visiting the island, please stop by Kronos 17610 Vashon Highway SW 206-463-0061, to see my new landscapes and paintings of animals.
As for the plein air attempt, it was a flop figuratively and literally :-) I dropped my sketch face down on the sand ..ouch
Looks like the whole idea to go there and paint on the overcast and windy day was a mistake ...
As for the piece I created , is it even reparable ? Sometimes, if you recognize a strong features of a successful painting - as a design, composition, colors, it's worse to completely repaint it, in this case, i don't think I want to invest more time in it...If I would do it , I would call it " Change of Heart"
Goodbye Vashon!

Skagit Valley Colors
Me and my painting buddies finally made it to La Conner. The tulip fields colors, crisp air, happy energy of people around and 2 finished sketches made this trip a success.
Im posting just one for now, as I'm still working on the larger piece and changing the composition a little. The tip of the day - Even if you using lot's bold, bright stand out colors , the dramatic compostion is still the key to a successful painting. Strong design and bold colors double the visual effect.
So here is the result of the trip (#1) and hey, it's for sale :)
$ 200.00 plus free shipping always! Have a great day and thank you for viewing my art :-)

Charcoal Drawing as a medicine
As we all know, a creative process , a spiritual path or life itself is not all roses...All those roads are bumpy. It's fun, interesting, fulfilling ..but bumpy and it's ok , that's the rule of the game, I suppose . To find an own, unique solution for blowing up those blocks and removing the obstacles.
The rationals are all different for everybody of course , but there is a solution for solving those antics and removing the blocks , and for me it's a meditation, green juicing and taking slow little steps toward my easel ...I found that best alternative when I can't even touch my brushes or approach the easel is to fish out and dust my drawing board and started to draw with charcoal....The more time I would mediate , the more time I could spent drawing - so the last two night I finally started to like what I do again, and today I'm ready for my paints....I think ...
So here are some images ...Thank you for viewing my art.
