In 2022, the cruise line P&O Cruises commissioned me to create two large paintings to be displayed on their newest cruise ship, the Arvia. Over two plus months of painting, Stay Lines and Shroud Lines were brought to life.

This short video shows me applying gold leaf to one small hand-painted circle in the middle of a large canvas in my studio.
Pale yellow circles
Here’s a video of me painting a pair of pale yellow circles. They are two of the many circles I’ll paint while working on this large gold-toned painting covering one wall of my studio.

Omega Skylight Time Lapse
After working on Omega for three years, I got pretty familiar with seeing the painting in my skylit Brooklyn studio. So when the time to ship the painting out for it’s first showing came, I felt a little anxiety about how it would read in a different space, with different lighting, and to different eyes.
Signed, Sealed
Here’s the full 3+ minute video of me painting the signature on a new commissioned painting. Like many of the marks in each painting, the brushstrokes here required more than one layer. This clip shows the final pass with gold paint harmonizing these eight letters with a gold-toned canvas.
One Blue Circle at a Time
I’ve been working on this color saturated larger painting for a few months. The scale makes the mood-lifting color bath that much better. It’s some real studio color therapy.
