16x20 Oil on canvas

If we find ourselves with a desire that nothing in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that we were made for another world.

11x14 Original Oil Painting
With brush and palette knife.


The windy waves mount up and curve and fall,
    And round the rocks the foam blows up like snow,—

    Tho' I am inland far, I hear and know,
For I was born the sea's eternal thrall.

I would that I were there and over me
    The cold insistence of the tide would roll,
    Quenching this burning thing men call the soul,—

Then with the ebbing I should drift and be
    Less than the smallest shell along the shoal,
Less than the sea-gulls calling to the sea.

                                           ~Sara Teasdale

Autumn Walk

12x24 Original Oil on canvas

 

Nature's first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf's a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf,
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day
Nothing gold can stay.

-Robert Frost
