Wet Paint! Big things in small packages.

"Orca 2018" 
Inspired by a recent trip to Sea World and some upcoming contributions to the Ocean Foundation, I painted this watercolor portrait of a beautiful killer whale. I was fascinated with the way the colors of the arena bounced off of their slick rubbery skin.

This piece was the smallest in the February art launch, and sold to one of my Very Important Patrons (VIPs) who just so happens to have a love for those same Orcas at Sea World.

Art Trivia - Did you know that the Mona Lisa is only about 20 inches x 30 inches?

VIP Circle EMAIL SIGNUP LINK

There have been multiple asks for a link to my Collector's Circle email signup form. Here is the link! Thank you for your interest in my artwork. My Collector's Circle enjoys advance access to new artwork. My art is in demand and many times the originals sell to my Collector's Circle before ever being released to the public market. This is the singular best way to see all of my new art and have a shot at purchasing it.  Otherwise you will have to wait for me to do a public art launch. :(  Who likes to wait?  Especially when it means most likely missing out on buying your choice of artwork.  For instance, I launched a turtle painting to my Collector's Circle and sold it within  minutes . There were a dozen inquiries to that painting. That art is not going to be reproduced as a print, so the patron who acted on the email offering was able to acquire a very special piece of artwork. When I post the image to my website later in the month, no on...

Beach Boys

Ah, the Beach Boys ... surfin' the coast. These tarpon were inspired by a lazy, calm day on the beach side of the island. They swam along the shoreline about mid-island, just cruising. They looked like they were trying to find a wave to catch. I had no fishing pole so I watched them for awhile. Artist Kelly Reark   www.KellyReark.com
