We discussed options and finally settled on a large Dutch landscape with rows of multi-colored tulips, leading back to the horizon line which was to include buildings and windmills. My client wanted a deeply blue sky with fluffy clouds and bright rows of flowers in colors including blue, pink, yellow, orange and red. Read more about the project >> |

I showed my paintings at Gallerie Amsterdam for twelve years, having multiple themed shows: European landscapes, Lavender Fields, White Poppies, Butterflies with flowers, etc. There were many times when I interacted with Tony and with Shari, his dazzling gallerist.... Read more >> |
