This last week, just for fun, and to see how many people I could reach, I offered a free online virtual art show (HERE). I created the show, and included a free downloadable print as a thank-you gift for coming to see the show. THE PLAN My plan was 4-fold: … Continue reading
Recently I was interviewed for EnkoArt.wordpress.com, a terrific art site that features many artists.

The Fire Goddess of Hawai’i This painting, Pele Searches for Her New Home, tells a little-talked-about part of the legend of Pele, the Fire Goddess of Hawaii. Usually… Most times you see Pele depicted as firey and angry, bursting out of or in a volcano, with lava and fire and … Continue reading
I’ve decided to make inexpensive prints available that you can download and print out yourself. So far, people like the idea. I’m thinking it might be cool to have a Collector’s Choice Membership Club where you could get prints for less! Here’s what I’ve set up: You can get all … Continue reading
