Recently, I had an opportunity to talk to someone about some of my larger scale work, primarily murals. One of the murals was a 36 foot wrap-around, Midwestern landscape painted on a garage. It was fun to do and utilized the trompe l’oeil method of softening the line between real and illusion. Meaning fool the eye, it is playful and challenging. Further conversation encouraged me to share just a few of those large scale works with you here, so you can now find a new page listed on the right side menu called “Murals plus”.
I also added a few more sketches to the journal, In the Garden. They are merely little illuminated watercolor pictures done on site, in my garden. Feel free to browse the site  –  and have fun.
