30 X 30 X 2 IN. OIL PAINTING ON STRETCHED CANVAS, GALLERY WRAPPED, EDGED PAINTED BLACK. Rainy Day in what appears to be SanFran, although I cannot verify that. It could be any city USA, most likely Seattle, where I’ve heard it never stops raining. Well, it could be London for that matter. Honestly I don’t know.

So I spend time searching out images and recreating beauty as I find it. That in turn has shaped my vision and stretched me personally in ways unexpected. There are many photos, both by others and myself, that have already done that work for me, and come “pre-packaged” as balanced works of art, and these are “finds” for me, a sig...
