Great news! Since my last post I have joined The Camden Falls Gallery in Camden ME www.camdenfallsgallery.com/ I just delivered work this past Tuesday and would like to thank the staff there for making me feel very welcome into their family of artists(Thank you).
I will be joining two other galleries as the season gets rolling but I will announce those as they happen.
One other thing I would like to point out is a link that I have recently added to the side of this blog, that link is labeled "Amateur Lense". This link is my wife Raquele's new blog, its only one post deep but I think you will like it. check it!
This painting is of a couple of a small chunk of our yard, it looks like two Dandelions but there is actually 3 see if you can spot it... :)

Of course I see it.
Nice little painting of a chunk of your yard. A good lesson next time someone says that there is nothing to paint. Just paint, you can make a beautiful painting out of almost anything.
Great news on the gallery Dan. Camden Falls is a cool little gallery.
Congratulations Dan. That's great. I hope you have alot of success at Camden Falls. THey are a great gallery.
Glad you spotted it Frank, so true beauty is everywhere..
Hey Colin, Thank you, I hope for alot of success there to. Then I can buy some you and Franks paintings :))
Hi, I can't find it...Is it really there? I love the painting of the house on the street. Congrats on Camden. You have some nice ones there.
Logan told me he saw six dandelions...
Congratulations with the gallery -
Thank you Karin.
Hi Eric, Logan must have looked under a blacklight, in a mirror, and with Ozzy playing above a hush in the background! Cause that is the only way you see all six.
Thank you and hope to see you guys on Monhegan.
gorgeous bee's-eye view!
What a very cool painting!!
It always amazes me how creative people can see what is little more than a corner of the yard and paint the beauty in it.
I saw a HUGE Clyde Aspevik (sp?) painting a few years ago at the Autry Show that was absolutely GORGEOUS... but it was really nothing but a field of weeds. (Which sold for something like $250,000) Honestly I am still in awe of how he made such a humble scene a true glory!!
HI Polusladkaia and Thank you.
Hi Marian, Thank you, I've only seen Clydes work in print and the screen, but 1/4 mil for weeds..?. I believe it, he is goooood.
