"Salvia" is an older painting I decided needed more work (it has been in our inventory for over 7 years and we've never placed it).  I painted the original one day at a workshop in dreamy Sedona, Arizona, and it had a very recognizable human figure flying through it.  If you've been to Sedona, that will seem perfectly normal to you.  If you start with the black oval as the head, you can still extract my dancer soaring across the painting from right to left with arms outstretched.  However, now it's not so obvious.  I added quite a bit of depth and line to the composition as well.  Overall, I'm much happier with it now!  It is 20x25", acrylic on paper.

"Magnificent Maple" is 40x30", acrylic on canvas... another pop of red for the new building.  I used an image I found online as my source material so I had to edit some things and I'm not certain where this was taken.  It definitely could be right here in my backyard in North Carolina, though.  Cheers!

"Samba 1 & 2" are very small, 11x15", acrylic paintings on paper.  They will likely hang on either side of a larger piece to create a grouping for a long wall.  These are high-energy, the complete opposite of the other painting I currently have on the easel (soon to come).
