I've always been intrigued by hands and the stories they tell. One Hundred Hands is a shared artistic endeavor involving a series of 100 paintings. This is an opportunity for you to provide the images I paint...and a chance for me to capture a moment in your time. I am currently accepting your images and will be selecting 100 photos to paint in the upcoming months. On this blog I will share your images, the paintings they inspired and the process of creating them. I invite you to join me, creating art together, hand in hand.

Catch of the Day 014


I loved this amusing photo. It shows fishing off a wharf in Whitianga, New Zealand. The baby fish is a Trevally. It was released and is hopefully now swimming around as an adult.

Party Girls 012

Our daughter Sadie celebrated her 14th birthday recently with a sleepover. Once her friends saw some of the paintings and heard more about this project, they were eager to participate. They got to work choosing colors and manicuring each other for their 'photo shoot.' Thanks girls...for being great sports and wonderful guests! The original painting is a gift for Sadie.
