Your Gift to Nature
Shows a forrest, full of bare tree's, and two pine trees with a present underneath one of them. It encourages you to give back to Mother Nature.
This piece is called "Your Gift to Nature" I painted in in December. I get really sad towards the end of December, with all the Christmas Tree's that haven't been purchased, they were cut down for nothing, it's a sad little though. So, that's kind of what inspired this painting. It shows a forrest, full of bare tree's, and two pine trees with a present underneath one of them. It encourages you to give back to Mother Nature.
There will be a small white border on the edge of the print to allow for handleing and framing!
I will ship international, contact me for shipping prices if you are outside the USA. (even though I have no international shipping price listed)
Digital print, open edition, signed & dated on the front, printed on archival quality matte photo paper at a professional printers, shipped by me from my local PO.
Why open edition? I choose to make my prints open edition because it allows me to keep my price low. If I put a limit on how many I can sell, and have to buy them all at once, then my cost goes up, and I have to turn that around on my buyers. I think Etsy is a great place to buy excellent art at reasonable prices, and I think open edition art is a great place to start with that. You don't need to be rolling in dough to have great artwork on your walls!
The original piece can be found in Creative Genius Contemporary Art Gallery in Medford, NJ.
Urge for Going - Autumn Day
Featuring nearly bare autumn trees, fall colored
leaves on the ground, with the glow of a harvest
morning as it's backdrop - you look at this scene,
you know winter is chomping at the bit to close in on
these trees.
This is an 8x10 digital print from a painting I did on a solid pine piece of pine.

Why did I call it "Urge for Going" - one of my favorite artists, Tom Rush - sings a song called "Urge for Going". It's on one of those CD's that I put on in September, around back to school time - getting ready for fall, saying a happy goodbye to summer. Autumn is my favorite time of year by far. The song has a double meaning - the warm breezes and lush trees of summer have the urge for going - and you do too....out with the old, in with the new.
Here's the lyrics - I highly reccomend this song/CD too -
Tom Rush - Urge for Going
And I awoke today and found the frost perched on the town
It hovered in a frozen sky and gobbled summer down
When the sun turns traitor cold
And chevron trees are standing in a naked row
I get the urge for going but I never seem to go
And I get the urge for going when the meadow grass is turning brown
Summertime is falling down winter's closing in
I had a girl in summertime with summer colored skin
And not another man in town my darling's heart could win
But when the leaves fell trembling down
And bully winds did rub their face down in the snow
She got the urge for going I had to let her go
She got the urge for going when the meadow grass was turning brown
And summertime was falling down and winters closing in
Now the warriors of winter they give a cold triumphant shout
All that stays is dying all that lives is getting out
See the geese in chevron flight
Flapping and a-racin on before the snow
Got the urge for going they've got the wings to go
And they get the urge for going when the meadow grass is turning brown
Summertime is falling down and winter's closing in
I'll ply the fire with kindling, I'll pull the blankets to my chin
I'll lock the vagrant winter out I'll bolt my wandering in
I'd like to call back summertime
And have her stay for just another month or so
But she's got the urge for going I guess she'll have to go
And she's gets the urge for going when the meadow grass is turning
brown
All her empire's are falling down winter's closing in
And I get the urge for going when the meadow grass is turning brown
And summertime is falling down
United in Freedom
Painted with some of our nations landmarks and anthems - quite a patriotic piece.
This piece is called "United in Freedom" It features the American Flag, painted with some of our nations landmarks, such as the Golden Gate's Bridge, the Statue of Liberty, the "Purple Mountain's Magesty" - the Rocky's, or the Appalachian, depending on which side of the coast you're on!
It features segments of lyrics from some of our patriotic nation's songs - such as:
My Country Tis of Thee
America the Beautiful
The Marine's Hymn
This Land is Your Land
and
Also the American's Declaration of Independence
There's only 6 stars on this flag, I wanted to do 13 for the initial 13 colonies, but it just wasn't working and I didn't like it, so I did the 6 instead :) So, it's a little homage to Betsy Ross's flag :D
A great patriotic piece, for anyone!

McHooty the Great Horned Owl
McHooty is a Great Horned Owl, he's sitting in a bare autumn tree on a cold evening. His distinctive hooting adds an extra chill to the air. It's a full moon and you can see him well, as well as the bare autumn tree in the background.

He's part of my "Neil's Room Series" that I painted for my son's room. He's number three in the series, and he's version two. The version one is hanging in my son's room :)

The New Jersey Devil & Forgotten Towns of NJ
The New Jersey devil on a background made up of all the towns alive and forgotten that he's haunted here in NJ!
The size is 8x10 - it's a picture of my version of the New Jersey Devil, on a backdrop of the names of all the forgotten and pine towns of NJ.
Piney Power!
Have you ever heard of the New Jersey Devil? He's the 7th Child of Abigail Rose Shourds, one dark and stormy night in the middle of the New Jersey Pine Barrens - Leed's Point, rumored to be born on July 7th, 1777. This was an unlucky day to have your 7th child for Abigail Rose Shourds. When she found out she was pregnant with number 7, already in an unhappy marriage with 6 unruly children, she cursed this child, and swore that the Devil damned her, as well as this unwanted child.
When Abigail Rose Shourds went into labor, it was a grueling long event. She continued to curse the child, to her Doctor's and Midwife's dismay. The birth was long and complicated. Finally, ad mist a storm of lightening and thunder, this child was born.
The child wasn't like the past 6 children, it was heinous looking, shrieking and shrilling. Within moments it was evident that his was not a human child. The face of a horse, large, bat like wings, cloven hooves like a goat mated with a horse - an absolutely tedious sight. It continued to shriek and shrill, the midwives and Doctor ran in terror. The child began to sprout horns, and it's baby pink flesh was replaced with coarse animal hair, all over it's body.
The child soon took flight, let out one last shriek, and busted out the window - disappearing into the dark stormy night, never to return home again.
It's home now is the New Jersey Pine Barrens. Some people say the Jersey Devil is a nuisance, killing livestock, and animals. He's even rumored to have killed a group of scientists in Batsto Village, and then subsequently also killed the search group that went out looking for them. Some of the bodies were never found.
I like to think of the Jersey Devil a bit differently. Sure, he's probably knocked out some livestock here and there, the guy's gotta eat! But his home is the Pine Barrens. He is, as I dub him, the "Protector of the Pines" He scares litter bugs out of the pines, and preserves the area.
It makes sense, if you think about it - think of NJ. Ocean, Mountains, Industrial Parks, Oil Refineries - and one of the highest population per square mile - and we're not all that big of a state - how else did we manage to preserve miles upon miles of untouched forest? I think with the clawed arm of the Jersey Devil!
So - this is my version of the Jersey Devil that I created and drew. He's a bit more friendly than other versions you may have seen. He's a beloved piece of NJ Folklore, our own personal Loch Ness Monster. Some people say they don't believe, but, I'll bet they think twice before littering in the pine barrens!
Strange little sidenote - I became fascinated with the Jersey Devil a few years ago, drew up my version of him, even opened a coffee shop called the "Jersey Devil Cafe"! I began to research further, who the alledged parents of the Jersey Devil were - and - it is in historical records that Abigail Rose Shourds (nee, Leeds) gave birth to a 7th child, whom was never spoken of again or had any other records. But anyway - I found out AFTER my fascination, that I share a name with the Jersey Devil's mother - my name is Abigail Rose! Strange coincidence, huh?!
Other Jersey Devil Paraphernalia coming soon!
