     I’ve added nine new paintings to this site in July, 2007, which I consider a decided improvement upon the three added in December of last year. As feared, work on tales and the second draught of the new novel positively devoured my time. Most of the painting I’ve done the past few months has been second best. My plan is to leave Banshee untouched at least six months. Whether I’ll succeed remains to be seen, of course. Inspiration can be the most addictive, dementia-inducing drug of all.

     All paintings are available as original, one of a kind digital prints; in addition, most are available as high quality ink jet prints produced at 1,440 dot per inch resolution. I use high quality quality water color paper or Pictorico’s very high quality film to produce prints. Pictorico’s films are expensive and well worth their costs. Like originals, prints are signed by the artist and suitable for framing, but should be mounted behind ultraviolet-resistant glass and hung away from direct sunlight. Dark paintings and those with heavy saturation are beyond the capabilities of my color printer, so prints are available only of most paintings. Please send me an E-mail message if you’d like to purchase paintings and/or prints.
