If you are reading this, it is because you have been a BIG supporter of my creativity… I am truly greatful for that, now and forever :)
Evolution
In September of 2024 Tara and I moved from downtown LA to Manhattan Beach and immediately fell in love with the beauty and peacefulness. Moving here, plus a Monet biography were the catalyst to begin my Impressions series… the series I see becoming my next big creative movement in my art career.
The latest Impressions series painting completed in 07/2025
What inspired me to continue to pursue the Impressions series was a love of 3 things: Creativity, Nature, and the beauty that surrounds us all.
One of my new favorite Studios… our patio in Manhattan Beach :)
Although I still have my DTLA studio, I rarely go there and now, I have new Studio(s)… our patio and virtually anywhere inspiring in the World!
Created at the bottom of our street overlooking the Manhattan Beach Pier and Catalina Island
This is Tara and my home in Manhattan Beach… I created this painting to immortalize and honor a very special place to her and me
This series has opened up creative potentials that have helped me expand beyond solely working out of a studio. I envision traveling around the World and painting the most beautiful and special places… special places to me as well as special places to my Collectors.
If you desire to have somewhere, someplace commemorated, please let me know… I am Very interested in pursuing these creative adventure :)
New Beginnings
As you probably already know, I create a lot. For all intents and purpose, I have been, and continue to create virtually every single day of my life since 2014. I have created over 75 Stuffed Animals and over 160 cRaZy stuFFed aniMALs oil paintings (not including sketches and gouache pieces). With that said, these eras are coming to a creative end for me and my Creativity is now beginning to follow new paths… it feels like the beginning to me however, that is just the way I like it!
If you own a Stuffed Animals or cRaZy stuFFed aniMALs piece, I hope you cherish it because there will be very few more ever created.
One of the few remaining pieces in this series is, and potentially the last created of its kind: “Greatful”, completed in 04/2025. If you want to add 1 more teddy bear to your collection, this is an excellent piece.
“Greatful”, 2025, oil on canvas, 30”x 24” (76cm x 61cm)
Inspired from one of my favorite pieces, “Third Time’s a Charm”
One of the most textural teddy bears I have ever created and a deep exploration of light and reflection
“Greatful” represents a celebration of gratitude and all of the great things we have in life :)
If you are interested in adding this piece to your collection, please let me know :)
