In a world increasingly dominated by computers, it is not surprising that the latest advancement in the art world revolves around the digital method used to reproduce art images.

The term "giclee print" identifies a significant elevation in printmaking technology. Images are generated from high resolution digital scans of original artwork and prints are created using latest technology ink jet printers capable of producing incredibly detail and color reproduction. In this process, a fine stream of archival quality ink - millions of droplets per second - is sprayed onto various substrates including canvas and acid free fine art paper. The end product of this process is a reproduction with superior accuracy and longevity.

Architecture has always been popular subject matter for paintings. Its design and construction has been a vehicle through which man has given expression to his finest creative energies. None of these creations have been more loved and respected than Europe's great cathedrals. St. Mark's Cathedral in Venice, Italy is the subject of this painting.

This painting won a Silver Metal at the
National Society of Painters in Casein and Acrylics 2005 exhibition.

Once the home of popular riding stables, this old barn has long been an icon to residents of Bella Vista Village, AR. Like many such structures it recently fell victim to progress. Replaced by a new elementary school, only nostalgic memories remain to remind us of it's place in the hearts and history of this village.

Overgrown with weeds and suffering from neglect, this once thriving business is now only a hint of the role it played in the community. This painting was done only weeks before the barn was demolished to make room for new construction.
