It is a New Year and time for a new beginning. It is exciting to start on some new painting adventures.

EARLY MORNING is my first 2012 mini canvas painting that I recently added to my ETSY shop

I am enjoying doing these small artworks, they are great to sit on a table or bookcase, and they help me decide if I want to paint the subject in a larger format.
It's been a while since I posted any new artwork, life just has a way of taking over; but I am back to my painting. Please enjoy and thank you for viewing.

SUSHI EBI and SALMON ROLL

It is said that you should paint what you love so that is the inspiration for my sushi paintings. Besides tasting very good. The presentation of sushi is an art in itself.

These are the first two paintings in my series of THE ART OF SUSHI paintings.

It is a 4x6x3/4 gallery wrapped canvas and is finished on all sides.

It would make a great table top painting.
