Here's a few details of the two newest works on the easel: a jelly diptych on aluminum flashing and the Fall River Scroll Five.

I've been pondering the term easel painting. I consider myself an easel painter even though I sometimes place the work on walls and floors as I paint. And I use a large inkjet printer and my iPhone. I suppose I'm pondering this because I see more pure digital work. Which is okay but it's not painting.

I prefer to see the hand of the artist and not solely a software program. This is all part of the larger what is art dialogue, which quite frankly, bores me. Anyway I like the messiness of wet paint and brushes AND the digital stuff. It's the paint that makes it tangible and real for me.
