This painting was developed with the home owners specific desires to address a 17 foot high wall along their staircase.  Over the span of a year I shared my artistic process closely with the family. We exchanged ideas and a vision for the space.  I completed several conceptual study paintings as well as devised various compositions using multi-panel designs.  I sought out their vision and combined it with some experimentation and presented different painting styles.  This culminated into the final version, a colourful, bold and dramatic 10 panel work that has activated their front entrance to their home.

This montage of cloud paintings was commissioned by a friend and collector of my work. A fellow cloud lover and avid traveler. I wanted to give this client an array of colour, a variety of perspectives to reflect this persons love of travel. The collection of paintings form an arrangement of roughly 42 high × 60 inches long.

To prepare myself to paint a large commission painting, I requested a site visit with my client. My mission was to create a few paintings from life and spend some time with my client to get to know them and why this site holds deep meaning to them. The information I gather on such a trip helps connect me to the site and my client, translating into deeper meaning when I get to work in the studio.

This mural was developed with my client to fulfill their decorating vision in their son's nursery.

This painting was commissioned as a 30th birthday gift from the subjects sister.

Contact me via email to discuss your special commission.

Originally completed for my own apartment, this painting has found its perfect home in a home office.

This private owner installed "Clouds #1, (2015)" in her office to add some blue skies to everyday work day.
