Right around this time last year I began working on a commission painting for a client of Aerena Gallery in Healdsburg California. This piece was to be for the client's guest cottage at their Sonoma country home. They requested for the painting to have a serene, tranquil quality. The writing across my canvases was a stream of consciousness, indicative of getting away from it all, nature, country air, birds chirping, long walks and sunshine.

The size of the painting is 40" x 140", a triptych. The writing is graphite on canvas & layers of oil paint dripping over, on top of the writing.

In my studio, three canvases in process for private commission piece "Dreaming in Orange"
