Parcheesi Board
My first wife loved to play Parcheesi.. Sometime in 2002 ( ? ) , I painted her this gameboard , and it served her well. She and I (and / or the kids) played many times on it. after she left us in 2003, it was hung on the wall among her dolls in the up-stairs hall. In February of this year, I took it down and completely restored it. It now hangs on display in my gallery, as a functional piece of art.

This haunting piece was quite literally brought back from the dead. I've recently traveled to Rome , New York, to say "good bye" to my mother (for the last time)... This piece was found among the piles of nick-nacks and doo-dads she'd collected over 70 or so years. Broken in 2 or 3 places and covered with a blanket of dust, I brought it home and cleaned and repaired it. I had marked it 1996, which brought about two points of interest...1: I created this piece while staying in San Diego, before moveing to live permanently into Pixley House.....and 2: It was made nearly a decade before this type of artwork was part of my repertoire. This piece is on a 12" x 12" base and stands 14" high.
The Girl In The Woods
Framed very much the same, this 20" x 24" acrylic is a "sequel" to THE BOY IN THE WOODS. This piece was painted in February of 2011. (see older posts)
Untitled
This 24" x 30" acrylic is still my personel favorite angel picture, (that I did) Ironicly, I never titled it , framed it, or even dated it. I believe I painted this piece sometime in 2001. (give or take a year).
