Onions and Garlic
(24" x 36", oil on canvas)

This larger format painting gave me a lot of things to sink my teeth into and was a nice, though exhausting, change from my usual minimal compositions. Despite the number of elements, I believe this piece still retains my love of quiet atmosphere.

100th Painting of the Week
This posting marks a bit of a milestone for me today, as it’s my 100th Painting of the Week. Painting is largely a solitary activity and while I cherish my hours in the studio, I can also get to feeling pretty isolated. Your comments, no matter how infrequent, give me a way to measure my work. I always look forward to Wednesdays to see if I've hit a nerve. So thanks to all of you for agreeing to be my viewing audience and keeping me from feeling overly disconnected.
