"Saugatuck Summer No. 1" was inspired by a week I spent in beautiful Saugatuck, Michigan. It's an abstract finger painting on stretched canvas. The dimensions are 24"x24"x1." The texture on the painting was created by moving my hand in various ways in the paint. It's a very energetic yet calming painting. The edges of canvas are painted, so no frame is required. It's signed on bottom edge (not the front) of the canvas. The painting is available for $350, but let me know if you'd like me to create something similar in another size. Shipping of this painting within one week.

My abstract paintings are created through the spontaneous application of paint with my fingers. This technique has enabled me to create a variety of textures and designs that I cannot achieve with a brush. Although I have spent most of my art career as a finger painting artist, I also use a very fine brush to create surreal landscapes. While these landscapes retain the dreamy feel of my abstracts, they incorporate more realistic details such as grass and flowers.
The colors in my work are saturated, yet you'll find subtle variations in the hues. My paintings are not only known for their vibrant and profound colors, but also for their textures. People often report feeling both energized and calm while looking at my work.
