“She Rode Where Sense Would Not Follow”

In the dimming years of the 1890s, Clara Whitcombe rode the prairie as if escaping a life already lost to her. The road bent unnaturally beneath her wheels, and the wind whispered names she no longer answered to. She traveled with rescued creatures, fragile witnesses to her belief that broken things deserved second chances. Her companions had found her just as she had found them—cast aside and searching for somewhere to belong. Each mile carried them toward a rumored sanctuary where unwanted souls might finally rest. She never turned back, unsure whether she was moving toward freedom or simply farther into the dream she could not wake from.


First acrylic painting…

I have officially switched over to acrylics instead of watercolor and gouache. I am still getting the hang of using the acrylics.

“Mira Del Fin” is 16″ x 20″ canvas, Golden OPEN acrylics painting. This is part of my futuristic painting where earth is becoming more conquered by robots.

Check out the galleries!

The Wistful World gallery contains artwork that is related to a more modern and future look. These characters somewhat reminds me of a manga influence.


From about 2008 to 2012 I started with long-necked characters that I named “Steamfolk” that corresponds with a whimsical steampunk style brought on from the Modicats series. This gallery marks the turning point for my artwork style…. From Modi cats to figurative work.


At some time in the mid-2000’s, I was getting bored with traditional subject matter. Then one day I asked myself “If Amedeo Modigliani had a cat, how would he paint it?”. The rest is history!



Some fun with simple landscapes… in the wistful world style.
