Auction Update

Somehow in my brilliant sense of marketing I’ve failed to mention here that I decided lately to make each of my sunset paintings available at auction as soon as they’re posted. I’m also experimenting with a low opening, so a nice find may be possible. The auction for this sunset, Thunderheads at Twilight, from June 12th, will end in about four days. You can find it, and access other auctions, here. Thanks.

Anniversary

By the way, I painted the first of my sunsets 17 years ago today, June 13, 1995. Painted another one a couple days later, and then the next day ... Anyone got space for a few thousand paintings?
