"NO VACANCY"

OK - alright already.

 I truly love this scene and needed to paint

another one for the gallery for July to replace the one that just sold. 

10"h X 16"w

I'm ready to roll. The show is up at HARWIGS - yeah!

It's great to see everything up in one place because sometimes, most times

I wonder what the heck I've been up to and then it all becomes clear.

I've been busy.

Sorry the posts have been few and far between 

Turned out I was overwhelmed and it really got the best of me.

Hope to get on track next week.

Thanks for hanging in there!

"NO VACANCY II"SOLD

I love the Rabbit Ears Motel sign. This is the third time I've painted

this sign and there will probably be a few more. I just can't quit. 

I love it!

Steamboat Springs just wouldn't be the same without it. 

I'm thankful it's being looked after and kept up.

In the 70's all of the outer bulbs had to be removed because

CDOT mandated that the sign could no longer be animated

and have the lights move in series because the sign is

on a major highway. The eyes moved too! I got here

too late to see the sign in full working order but I

thought it would be fun to try and add all the lights

once long ago removed.

Thanks a bunch

"RUSH HOUR"

"STEAMBOAT STYLE"

OK it's been a while and I have no real reason other than life seems to get in the way. 

I have some 6" X 8" gessoboards and I'm having some fun with them. I've always wanted to paint the Rabbit Ears motel sign so here it is and there will be another. 

I have 2 shows lined up for next year - Harwigs in March and Creekside in October. I'm gearing up for those events because I want the shows to have a specific theme and paint in series. Harwigs will be called "HORSEPOWER" and Creekside will be "CHICAGO" things could change but that's what I'm thinking right now. Stay tuned!
