Alex & Evan, Playing Dress Up, Molly & Frances, Fiji Family, and Girl in Swimming Pool, have all been accepted into A Singular Creation Gallery's Figurative Category.

My figurative paintings, some based on family photographs, others from the present, offer a stylized impression of the people. The paintings hint at stories about their subjects.
