Pufferfish Mini Painting

"Puff Puff" is a 6x6 inch Pufferfish Mini Painting created for my Brass Bell Studios solo show. The background is made with dimensional ground medium making it more absorbent like watercolor paper so the paint can be layered in vibrant washes of color (including silver acrylic), before painting the main attraction, the cute little fish :)

Get him at this link.

Sometimes a Splash of Color is needed...

In rooms where you want to add color, perhaps you seek a vivid abstract- perhaps one that suggests florals or seasonal tones or movement and action... It is in these areas I have abstract paintings inspired by roses- you can purchase this one, acrylic and 16x20 inches ready to hang

Murals and Wall graphics

I paint murals and wall graphics too! Here's a logo for The Sandwich Club on Western Avenue in OKC, OK- approx 3 feet in diameter. We knocked out this one after they closed one evening. 

This is painted with 1shot paints (which are oil based but leave a nice even finish with bright pigments and are quite durable- they are also used in painted signs and pinstriping)

You can see this over the counter at The SandwichClubOKC, the new 80s-themed sandwich shop on 36th and Western by Guestroom Records (try the "sweep the leg" sandwich- it's delicious!) ...

AND if you are interested in murals or wall art/graphics please 

send an email or visit my website for more info.
