Some things last a long time

Posted on November 9, 2010 | Leave a comment

Thank you, Mike Lownie, for reminding me that Daniel Johnston exists in this world. You brightened my whole day (as grey and dreary as it looks from the outside here in Denver on the unusually late date of our first snowfall of the season.)

I will have tiny and affordable paintings for sale at the Foothills Center Holiday Market, which opens this Friday November 13, with a reception from 6 to 8 pm.

This show will last a (relatively) long time. It hangs from November 13 till December 30.

Mermaids Singing (What the Water Wants)

Posted on October 24, 2010 | Leave a comment

With apologies to and in appreciation of T.S. Eliot and Sufjan Stevens.

And countless others. Always.

Oil on wood, 6″ x 36″.

I’ve finished this oddly sized painting for a group show titled Syzygy (we’re all working on this same long, narrow panel) that will open at Sync Gallery on November 19th and hang until December 11th.

Many thanks to the good people at Sync for inviting me.

Julian Barnes reads Frank O’Connor.

I recommend it.

Step Into My Parlor

Posted on July 20, 2009 | 1 comment

It has been a very spidery summer in my studio. Arachnids creep me out a bit but I enjoy their beauty almost as much as I admire their industry. Would that I could get as much accomplished. Here is a new painting, 40″ x 40″, oil on canvas.Step-IntoMyParlor

Lisbongraf11The graffiti in Lisbon is abundant, accomplished, and impossible to ignore. Here are few pics of a wall near the place we stayed. Photographs by Frank Harbour.
