Nocturne painting looking out from an apartment window with still life of a book, camera and smoke on the windowsill, lit windows in the adjacent apartment beyond the window pane.
"Rear Window"
Acrylic on panel, 2022. Part of a window series shaped by moments looking out from the apartment during the pandemic, Hitchcock in the background. Hard to process that impact as things feel increasingly fractured and inward-looking.

Thanks much! I currently have work at Nahcotta in Portsmouth, NH, and a piece at Nucleus House @nucleushouse.bsky.social in Portland, OR. On my website I generally sell smaller works, studies and open edition prints directly. Larger work tends to go thru galleries.
