ALL ART ON THIS PAGE HAS BEEN SOLD - MORE WILL BE ADDED BY MID 2024

Prices of paintings and prints on this page are direct-from-artist prices, or 60% of the cost when a piece is in an art gallery. I am always very happy to have my work in a gallery because there are full-time people who know a lot about the artists and each piece, and can explain all to the general public, their work is to present artists works to the public and handle sales. Art galleries are a great service to artists and well-deserve the 40% commission. I hope to be able to add more pieces by the end of 2023.
Concentration Sufi Singers

“CONCENTRATION” Fine Art Print (SOLD OUT)

The painting from which this signed fine art print was created was inspired by the faces of two children in a Montessori class in Romania. Clearly the level of interest, focus, concentration, and happiness, is as deep for the watching child as for the working child. It seems they are blessed by angels, like those found in beautiful churches throughout the country.“Concentration” is an 9” x 12” print reproduced from an original painting (acrylic on panel, 2022). $40

TEN PORTRAITS OF SUFI SINGERS (SOLD)
oil on linen, 11" x 14", unframed
––––––––––
In Morocco I attended a beautiful performance of Turkish Sufi dancers and singers out under the stars. My eyes were continually drawn to the religious passion shown on the faces of the singers on either side of the dancers. One portrait is a difficult undertaking; ten portraits a challenge that took many months. $900

The Aprin Trinidad House

“THE APRON” Fine Art Print (SOLD OUT)

The painting from which this signed fine art print was created, captures an important moment. Putting on an apron to prepare for a task can help children focus on a chosen activity and marks the beginning of an important cycle of real work; removing and hanging it up marks the end. In this case it seems that the older child realizes that the younger child wants, needs, to practice tying. He is waiting patiently. Concentration, work, and helping others in such a way are all valuable at home or in school, at any age. “The Apron” is an 8” x 10” print reproduced from an original painting (acrylic on panel, 2022). $35

––––––––––
The famous Riecke House is one of two historical, surviving turn-of-the-century homes that still exist. Today it is the home of The Trinidad Art Gallery and great care if taken to keep both the building and the surrounding gardens in excellent condition. Thus the inspiration for this painting.

 
Follow the Child Russian Baptism

“FOLLOW THE CHILD” Fine Art Print (SOLD OUT)

The painting from which this signed, fine art print, was created was inspired by a night-time dream of the artist who has been working in the field of Montessori education since 1970. It was requested as a print by Montessori teachers for a variety of reasons, honoring a variety of interpretations. Let your mind write your own story about what it means. “Dream” or “Follow the Child” (it seems to have several names depending on the interpretation) is an 8” x 10” print reproduced from an original painting (acrylic on panel, 2022). $35
