New painting and a trip to LA

"Backhoe" or possibly "A Bear and a Backhoe"
oil on canvas  36"h x 48"w

So I'm heading out tomorrow a.m. to Los Angeles where this and another painting will accompany me while I proceed to hawk my wares to galleries. Always a good time, that.

They will also hang at a one time launch event for issue 9 of Blue Canvas magazine which also runs an artists networking site. The event is from 7pm to 1am. I wonder if I'll last that long. 

5 new paintings

The show at Attic Gallery is already up and the reception went well I suppose. With a little help from John Power.
Anyway I finally got the last 5 slides of the newest paintings scanned so here they are:

"Three Acts" 36" x 52"  2011

"City Map"  41" x 49"  2011

This one I'm not so sure about the title. If something better occurs to me I'll change it. For some odd reason the piece makes me think about Thomas Kinkade ("painter of light").

"Focal point"  50" x 33"  2011

"Sister"  50" x 32"  2011

"Transect"  50" x 33"  2011
