It’s not too late to sign up for my Introduction to Acrylics classes Tomorrow night (February 6) through March 19th 6:15-9:15 pm at the Carrboro Arts Center.
We’ll be working on basics, but it’s for all skill levels.
This portrait of Charlotte Hawkins Brown is painted with acrylics and I’ll be taking photos of other examples soon.
The Charlotte Hawkins Brown Museum accepted donation of my portrait of the museum’s namesake. The portrait will be presented at the museum’s Annual Christmas Open House this Sunday from 1 to 5 pm.
The portrait was painted in 2005 for The Charlotte Observer and the donation is courtesy of The Charlotte Observer. Thanks to The Observer’s Dee-Dee Strickland and June Lancaster and the Museum’s Marian Inabinett.
If you’re in the Durham/Chapel Hill area and interested in plein air painting, please sign up for my seven-Saturday course at the Carrboro Arts Center. It’s up to a group vote, but we’re scheduled to visit spots at Duke Forest, the Botanical Gardens and Northwoods trails. Questions? Drop me a line.

My dad’s and my exhibit ends Saturday, July 30 – the same day, there’s a closing party from 1-3 pm at The Art Station gallery. There were over sixty of my paintings and more than thirty of my dad’s sculptures. Ryan Karpinsky, Roy Woods, Ted, Tammy Cantrell and everyone at The Art Station are doing a great job getting a new gallery off the ground in Gastonia!
These rocks are near marker 22 on the Wormhole Loop in Carolina Northwoods Forest in Chapel Hill. They caught my eye during a run and came to mind for the next painting. A smooth slope, from bikers and runners, is worn into the side closest to the viewer. Over 22 more years, I can make paintings for each marker along the trail.
