It's been a while...............

It's been a while since I've posted here, and I hope to keep up a little more regularly now (I've found a new sense of dedication somewhere between a Tim Burton Show and a Trip to Stormking Art Center- Both Awesome!) I'll post about both of those next but......
For now I just entered a piece in an Art.com contest about Life in Motion. It's an old favorite. Here it is -
This work is oil on canvas it is 22x40". This work was created using drawings and photographs that I made while in London on the date and around the time mentioned in the title. I am a landscape painter and printmaker and my subject matter is places and and moments in time that I have collected during extensive travel. As an artist I am most inspired when I am in motion, traveling and my works are inspired by the small moments in landscape that are most important for me. I use an exaggerated sense of color, texture and perspective to invite the view into these moments in time.
