December 03, 2022 – My Most Viewed Image this Past Week @FineArtAmerica, “Costa Rica Sunset Panorama” : circa 2017
I almost skipped even posting about it, but at 4x the views of the nearest most viewed of my images, I needed to drag myself out of my whatever-it-is recent posting stagnation, lol!

November 13, 2022 – My Most Viewed Image this Past Week @FineArtAmerica, “Cypress Creek Mid Afternoon Mid October” : Circa 2019

September 18, 2022 – My Most Viewed Image this Past Week @FineArtAmerica, “Time at the Musee d’Orsay ” : circa 2012
Just a month ago Time at the Musee d’Orsay suddenly popped up as my most viewed, and here it is again! Maybe that means we’ll make it back to Paris eventually after all, lol!

September 06, 2022 – Pacing Myself to My September 8th Operation on My Breathing Channels – Ordering Meds, Gathering Supplies, Exercising Slowly But Strongly
Yesterday, Labor Day, time got away from us, mixing down time watching Morse, the late 80’s predecessor to Masterpieces’ equally engaging Endeavor, plus finalizing forms for our before-dawn checkin for surgery.

July 05, 2022 – Small But Welcome 4th of July Celebrations from Our New Location at #TheLadyBird #AustinTexas
That I’m running late with today’s blog post is a bit of an understatement, it being 1/2 past 11 and nearly Wednesday! But Sheila and I stayed up late a bit, enjoying peeks of fireworks and seeing folks enjoying being able to ( mostly, but not everywhere : Chicago parade shooting ) be out –

July 02, 2022 – #CrescentMoon at Sunset, Austin Texas
I hoped, in yesterday’s post, I might be able to post this sunset off our balcony – a crescent moon floating above the sea of crimson orange air – and am so glad I could 🙏

May 09, 2022 – My Most Viewed Image this Past Week @FineArtAmerica, 2nd Time This Year My Top 3 Most Viewed Images Are Photographs!
Part of what I find fascinating about this posting’s top 3 viewed of my images at Fine Art America, is that all 3 are BW, or mostly so! As fascinating is I’ve also had a series of intermittent paintings of featuring mostly dark tones, even some with gold tones, like as seen in Bridge into…

April 25, 2022 – My Most Viewed Image this Past Week @FineArtAmerica, A Blush of Spring, #Watercolor
There’s a reason A Blush of Spring is my most viewed again, even after just over a year since last “most viewed” on Fine Art America. Once it reappeared as prints at a variety of locations, it has once again captured the attention of viewers & buyers 🙏 ☺️

April 17, 2022 – My Most Viewed Image this Past Week @FineArtAmerica, a Tie! #Photography & #Watercolor : Austin Pink Sunset & Mother and Child!
So very different, my top 2, one dark & one light, photo & acrylic, yet – with their soft pinks and sense of rest and peaceful nurturing, so very much alike! Plus, I think this is only my 2nd or so tie for most viewed among my top 12….

February 14, 2022 – My Most Viewed Image this Past Week @FineArtAmerica, Easy Stroll – New 16×20 #LyricalAbstract #AcrylicPainting
Happy Valentines Day everyone! And, it’s also my wife’s birthday!! ♥️ So it’s kinda extra nice to post that Easy Stroll repeats as I most viewed on Fine Art America during the 1st week of February. The painting itself reminds me of both stories she’s told me of her year long stay in the jungles…

January 22, 2022 – Rethinking (re-engineering?) How I Post About Images I Upload to #FineArtAmerica
My most emerging challenge as I ramp up being able to and wanting to paint more often – each day if possible – is time. Not a big surprise for all the folks with lots of interests and/or commitments, even for us 70+ year olds, lol! Though, surprisingly, just as difficult to navigate the demands…

January 03, 2022 – My Most Viewed Image This Past Week @FineArtAmerica, Mesa Verde in the Beginning – New #AcrylicPainting on 6×6 Gallery Wrapped Canvas
Heavy with slashes of Golden’s Light Molding Paste, Mesa Verde in the Beginning is one of my more successful paint-and-cover-the-first-layin art pieces in a quite a bit! And this little work had only been uploaded a day before the week’s cutoff! But the real treat for me, a dual treat, was seeing my most recent…

If it was an amazing process to see older photos and artwork show up on my most viewed list last week (and it was 😊) then this batch is incredible! Work from so many years have shown up, and such a variety! It tells me, one can never quite tell what folks might be looking…

November 22, 2021 – My Most Viewed Image This Past Week @FineArtAmerica, Walking in Light
I particularly like the look and feel of Walking in Light, the sway of colors synced with the vegetation and figure walking in an easy light ❤️ This post I’m including a pic of more of my images on the most viewed info I get from Fine Art America, just ’cause the array of colors…

November 17, 2021 – Delivering New Art to the Old Bakery and Emporium (across from the State Capital) Austin, Texas – 1 Painting & 2 Prints
Just a very quick note to say I restocked a few pieces at the Old Bakery & Emporium here in Austin. One, the SRV photo left side is a replacement for one sold, and my State Capital photo is back in 1st time since when the pandemic had closed the Bakery way back, and Autumn…

October 28, 2021 – Sold! At the Old Bakery and Emporium (across from the State Capital) Austin, Texas – #SRV Statue Photo Capture + 1 Small Painting
Stevie Ray Vaughan’s of course a legend, esp here in Austin, and I was fortunate to be out searching for images to capture one very early grey-blue late-February morning, and I got very lucky ❤️

October 24, 2021 – My Most Viewed Image This Past Week @FineArtAmerica, Arm Chair View Paris, an early #watercolor #blackandwhite #figureart circa Sept 2020
An interesting most viewed results on my Fine Art America site this past viewing period — Plus, as surprising, was the fact 4 of my top 6 most viewed images were Paris themed, 2 of the remainder were also from places we’ve visited (New York & Vermont), followed by most viewed “period” of an Austin…

September 14, 2021 – Playing with 4K Video to Grab Still Shots
Now that we’ve had our bird feeder up a few months at our new location, we’ve come across a wider variety of birds (and other critters) and’ve been working at grabbing shots of birds in motion I might could use for sketches and such 🦅

August 28, 2021 – (Still) Experimenting Developing Figure Sketches, Tentative Title: Woman Walking Dogs 1
Wanted to place the new top image next to the two competing figure line art studies I’d included in a previous post, but the gallery shot compressed the side by side initial studies too much. This should still work though to show where I borrowed from both studies to make one I’m much happier with.…

August 24, 2021 – My Newest #Vermont Poster Upload @FineArtAmerica – Bingham Falls Smugglers Notch State Park
If my above Vermont poster has something distinctly in common with my concurrent Austin Barton Springs Greenbelt poster series, it’s the sheer sparkle of abundance nature! That Austin even has something smaller yet comparable within its city limits is a miracle, lol! There’s no denying the intensity-level shift when dealing with things Vermont

August 22, 2021 – Starting the Day with Dappled Light and Love
There was gonna be no pretense about the heat here in Austin today, not to mention the Covid resurge rivaling and in places surpassing the worth of the nearly two years of pandemic. But Sheila and Max and I set out before breakfast this morning, before the sun had shrank away the surprise morning clouds,…

August 16, 2021 – Commiserating With Myself After My Mom’s Passing
I’ve had a string of strange stranded-like days since my mom’s burial. Along with a variety of naps from 5 minutes to an hour, I’ve walked more slowly, studying the shadows and dappled light along the paths of the greenbelt nearby. I’ve woken feeling a clarity about….
