This is a painting from a street in China. I am trying to paint compositions that are a little different from the norm. I want to steer clear from making every painting a straight-on view of the subject.

I organized the decor for our church's capital campaign wrap-up luncheon. The theme of the campaign, "forward in faith, together in mission," is written on the cross. These ornaments adorned the centerpieces and doubled as a favor to each guest.

If you are interested in a similar creation for your next event (wedding, holiday party, etc.) drop me a line. I can do any shape while keeping the same basic design.

This piece is another addition to my collection of Stockholm, Sweden paintings. The source for this scene is a photograph I shot a few blocks from my sister's old apartment. Looking at this brings me right back to that spot- which is really one of the primary reasons why I started watercolor paintings in the first place.

This work took a long time to finish. I put a lot of time into many details, but most notably the cobblestone street.

This is the Bird's Nest in Beijing, China http://en.beijing2008.cn/venues/nst/. I painted this in preparation for my trip to the 2008 Summer Olympics.

I made several high-grade copies of this and some of my other paintings from the Beijing series to give to my clients when I arrived in Beijing. They were a big hit!

Wow... the Great Wall of China. I painted this before seeing it in person. This China series was done as a way to get me exciting for the impending trip.

Servers are briefed prior to their shift at a Chinese restaurant.

Volunteers for the Games. I painted this prior to my trip to China. I had fun with this one because of the detail. I liked painting the folds in the clothing, the stitching on the jeans, and the hair.
