This Commission was a tribute to a couple’s wedding and her bouquet. Blue roses do not bloom naturally so that was quite a challenge.

Retirement Tribute Chair
I painted this vintage University-style chair in the school colors of Roger Williams University. The commissioned piece was a tribute to a well loved supervisor who was retiring. I included all sorts of insider jokes and messages, even under the seat. The center Time Out sign was painted in two versions. Which do you like better?
Cat Portrait Darwin
This little kitty, named Darwin, needed a sign to hang on the door of his own special place which is under the stairs in a room like Harry Potter’s . He even has his favorite toy mouse by his side. Isn’t he sweet? This painting of him is 12′ tall and 9″ wide.
In This House entryway mural
Enter this house through the mud room and take a moment to read the walls! As you open the door you are face to face with bold letters stating IN THIS HOUSE, followed by the family’s philosophy! I painted several quotes and paraphrases in black on the yellow walls, from classic sci-fi and fantasy movies, television and books. What sources do you recognize? Harry Potter! Star Wars! Star Trek! Goonies! Lord of the Rings! Hitchhiker’s Guide and more. Then when you exit the house look up over the door and see the directive from the Princess Bride! What a fun mural this was to paint. Or should I say is … We expect to add additional phrases over time.
