I finished this painting of oranges yesterday. I especially loved painting those 3 green ones up front.

Road Trip West

My friend Scott and I just drove from Austin to L.A. I am out here working on a new body of work. The road is a wonderfully relaxing place for me. Nothing to do but drive, drive, drive. Most of my road trip photos are taken while still in the car trucking down the highway. But when a gorgeous sunset presents itself, you have to pull over and enjoy the moment. Here are two for today. Thanks Scott, you are a perfect travel partner. - brian

citrus - my new obsession

We recently took a road trip to visit some friends in LA. What a crazy city. An amazing mix of natural beauty and urban madness. We spent a few hours roaming around the Huntington Gardens. I loved the cactus garden and the palms as well, but the citrus trees were the ones that really got to me.
