Nothin’ But Blue Skies


News / Monday, September 14th, 2015

“Nothin’ But Blue Skies”, this exhibit of my work is currently at Ariodante Gallery, Julia Street, New Orleans through the end of September.

All of my life I have always looked up, literally and philosophically.  And, as far as I’m concerned, the sky is always blue, no matter what, even in the very worst of times for me.  I got fussed at a lot as a little kid for not watching where I was going, always tripping over my own feet.  As my wise daughter recently reminded me, the sky is infinite, the ground, finite. 

When I started painting these roof tops, I didn’t start with the intention of painting my life’s philosophy.  It occurred to me during the process that was exactly what I was doing.

All of my paintings are from photos I constantly take, looking up most of the time. I hope they bring you thoughts of infinite possibility as you view them!
