This painting is 7' wide and 7'6" high, and is in a home in Bloomington, MN. It occupies one wall of the eat-in kitchen.

Above: Design sketch for a motorcycle mural. I'm capable of almost any subject matter or style. For many things, I'm just waiting on someone to ask me. If you don't see what you want here, it's simply because no one else has ever requested it.

Above, a niche in which I reproduced a scene the homeowner photographed in Europe. The painting is approximately six feet wide by eight feet high at the center of the arch.
