Happy Family
This painting was a commission by Mary Murphy, the famous ballroom dancer and judge on the hit TV show “So You Think You Can Dance”. While the artist was painting it an odd occurrence happened. I started seeing Mary’s face resembled in the face of the Scorpion Fish…when the paintings was delivered Mary started to crack up laughing and when I asked why she said that the fish had her look and personality!

Woody
In this classic watercolor of a Woody, this is a scene quite common in the coastal areas of Southern California where the artist currently resides. There are Woody gatherings in every coastal community where there are hundreds lining the streets. They are so beautiful and reminiscent of a golden age it’s no wonder this scene is so popular.

Freedom Flight
A 10-foot mural created for a restaurant in San Marcos, California. The full mural is a glass fishbowl in an Escher style. A puffer fish reacts to an unseen threat by inflating itself, hence demonstrating its unique defense mechanism.
A New Dawn
In this mural created for a client’s San Diego home the abundant sea life permeates this watery haven. All species coexist feeding off one another yet in nature all have their place. Percula clowns and a moorish idol, a bottle nosed dolphin and a sea turtle balance the image subliminally portraying the balance in nature.
Two Fish Jelly Fish
Sensually drifting forms capture our attention in this oil painting. Seemingly from outer space this Sea Nettle and many-ribbed Hydromedusa float and are luminescent so that at night one can see the outline of its parts in living light.
Nudibranch
