The 12th series is still in the process of being created.   

The beautiful 'Rain Paintings' are created in collaboration with mother nature.  

The 'Rain Paintings' emit a wonderful healing, peaceful, calm energy as a result of gathering the essential energy of nature.

Creating in conjunction with the rain produces wonderful layers of colors and textures combined in creative abstract patterns.  

I add different colors of paint (mostly acrylic and metallic paint) on several occasions (sometimes 20 - 40 or more layers)

during their evolution (which can take 6 months or longer) and then I decide when the paintings are complete.

Before I place the paintings outside, I paint the backsides with Kilz.

When the paintings are completed, I then wash the backs with bleach and paint another coat of

Kilz on them.

I sign the paintings, and then as a final step I paint the front of the painting with a varnish coating.
