A little garden painting — 7” × 5” × 1.5”, oil on stretched canvas. 🌿

A giant variegated pothos fills the foreground, with a red maple quietly emerging behind it. I loved the way the leaves caught the light and how all those greens began to mingle with the warmer colors in the background.

Small paintings can be surprisingly satisfying. Sometimes there’s just enough room to capture a particular moment without trying to explain everything. Original painting available. SmallPainting ContemporaryPainting

Rainy Day Garden — after the rain 🌿

I brought this little plein-air painting inside when the rain came, and continued it from memory.

Today I think I’m going to leave it alone for a while. It has taken on that feeling of a garden just after a Florida rain—the colors seem brighter, the leaves freshly washed, and little spots of yellow catching the light.

It’s interesting how a painting can change once you stop trying to paint exactly what you saw and start painting what you remember.

Rainy Day Garden 🌿🌧️ — work in progress

This little painting began as a plein-air painting, but the rain eventually sent me back inside. I’m continuing it from memory, trying to hold onto the feeling of the garden rather than simply reproduce what I saw.

I’m still working on it, so this is a glimpse of where the painting is taking me. I’ll share the finished piece when it’s done.

Ten Florida Moments — and this one closes the series.

This is Siesta Key, a beach with a completely different personality than the coast I usually paint. The sand out here is finer, whiter, almost cool underfoot even at midday. The water leans turquoise instead of the deeper blue-green I know from home. And these lifeguard towers — yellow, red, green, blue — stand like little sentries the whole length of the beach, each one its own small landmark.

I picked the red one. It felt right against all that towering cloud.

Ten paintings, ten moments, ten small windows into what this state looks like when you actually stop and look at it. Thank you for following along with this one — it’s been a joy to paint.

Painting nine of ten. 🌅

This one takes us to Ponce Inlet, in that stretch of time before sunrise — still dark along the shore, but the sky out over the ocean already glowing orange and gold. I remember standing behind the dunes with my camera years ago, and this little red buoy light kept catching my eye, peeking through the sea oats swaying in the breeze. Something so quiet and expectant about that moment, right before the sky really opens up.

This little painting holds a big story.

In August 2025 I photographed the rebuilt wooden walkway at Ponce Inlet — not knowing it would be gone within weeks. Hurricane Milton destroyed the original in October 2024. Volusia County rebuilt it just in time for Memorial Day. Then Hurricane Imelda closed it again, and a fierce fall nor’easter washed what remained out to sea.

This is that brief window of time — caught in oil on canvas.

As painters do, I interpreted the scene rather than documenting it — the walkway here is my impression of that moment, not an architectural record. But the feeling of it? That I hope is exactly right.

Between Storms — Ponce Inlet Jetty Walk is number eight in my Ten Florida Moments series. The warm wood of the railing, the jewel-toned teal water, that dramatic Florida sky — and the Ponce Inlet lifeguard tower standing watch through it all. 🌊
