Local Flavor Paintings
My "Local Flavor" paintings often are about the people, places, and things in my community. Mostly these are representative paintings about my immediate experiences in central North Carolina and southern Virginia. In particular, I have discovered that I like to capture the essence of local architecture and natural areas. While I like to paint picturesque scenes, I also am fascinated by old, run-down, and commonplace items that still have their own beauty and character.
