Description: Using my "It's Fez O'Clock Somewhere" saying along with my original artwork of the Clyde the Camel portrait, reproduced 3 times, I've created a "coffee" mug that is sure to prove a fun one for my fellow Shriner friends and Nobles all over the world. This unique and exclusive mug is perfect as a fun and useful gift for that special Shriner in your life or for gifting to yourself. This design is also available as a Travel Mug.
Description: This mug features a reproduction of my original oil painting of a scene viewed from the sandy bank of White Lick Creek. It was easy to carry my painting supplies to the spot which is part of Talon Stream park in Plainfield, Indiana. I painted this scene on site en plain air (in the open air).
Description: My original Comedy Is Right, 2025, is a multi media (super-glue shellacked dried plantain slice, print, duck tape and acrylic paint on canvas), 6"x6". There are times when the "High Art World" falls all over itself paying homage to the truly absurd, but there are times something absurd can have a long-term positive effect on the visual arts as a whole. However, something absolutely ridiculous and with no redeeming value, which passes in a short time like a naked emperor strutting past an observant and honest parade attendee, is that which this work is a commentary. BTW, this is part of an ever-expanding group of works the Indy Arts Council doesn't want you to see.😁
Description: This is the logo (and name) for a fun group of philanthropy and fraternally oriented men and women. The Muscovites were founded in October of 1893 near Cincinnati, Ohio. Since its start the order has seen membership grow, shrink, almost disappear then get revived. To learn more, search the web. Note: Though the design is not mine, I have spent hours cleaning it up and tweaking it for reproduction on items in my store (with permission of course). F.T.L.O.T.C! :-)
Description: A Water Landing At Robbie’s, from my 8”x 10” watercolor painting. I did this painting from a photograph I took while sitting in an Adirondack chair, facing the water, and relaxing at Robbie’s in Islamorada, Florida. Though I started drawing the image while still at Robbie’s, the vast majority of the painting (and the finishing of it) was done while I was smack in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean between America and Europe and cruising aboard the Liberty Of The Seas of the Royal Caribbean cruise line.
Description: This features two reproductions of my 8”x 10” watercolor painting (on 300 lb. Arches watercolor paper). I did this painting from a photograph I took while sitting in an Adirondack chair, facing the water, while relaxing at Robbie’s in Islamorada, Florida.

Description: From my original watercolor painting of the same title. This cardinal painting was commissioned as a continual commemoration of the life and love connection of two people. The cardinal is often used as a symbolic bird representing positivity amidst the troubles people experience in life. It is also a key figure in various folk and spiritual beliefs. For example it is a widely held belief that a sighting of a cardinal represents a sign of a visit from a loved one who has passed. While nothing is inherently supernatural within this image, the original was painted to serve as a shrine and memorial to the strong bond of love between two people.
Description: A public domain 1843 John Leech illustration of Scrooge on which I have superimposed a graphic one of my favorite quotes from A Christmas Carol. Though I always think of Scrooge as saying, "Are there no work houses?", I think the order of those words are actually spoken by the Ghost of Christmas Present as he (essentially) threw the words in Scrooges face (so to speak), to which Scrooge replies, "You use my words against me."
Description: From my original ink and watercolor on watercolor paper work titled Beach Bird. When I go to the beach, no matter where in the world that beach is, I'm always fascinated by the birds there. Growing up in central Indiana I didn't get much exposure to the "beach" varieties of birds so now when I happen upon them, I can't stop observing them. I find the lines made by their long necks and legs really interesting. This feathered friend strolled past me as I was chilling on a Sanibel causeway beach once upon a time... before hurricane Ian took that beach away.
Description: From my original acrylic on canvas painting. It's said daisies symbolize innocence and purity. One can easily see from this image how that might be an accurate interpretation of a daisy. It might also be said that this cup of daisies could brighten the mood of any environment in one might choose to sip from it. Great for gifting to ones self or others.
Description: From my acrylic on canvas painting. I've always been enthralled with the illusion of depth in paintings and what can be done with it. In this painting the sense of depth is manipulated partly with the victory statue, popularly called Miss Indiana, from atop the monument on Monument Circle, downtown Indianapolis.
Description: Also from my acrylic on canvas painting, but uploaded for front and back printing on a Tee Shirt. I've always been enthralled with the illusion of depth in paintings and what can be done with it. In this painting the sense of depth is manipulated partly with the victory statue, popularly called Miss Indiana, from atop the monument on Monument Circle, downtown Indianapolis.
Description: While staying in London and visiting the Tower of London, I became fascinated with the ravens that live there. There is a legend that says it would be a bad omen for the kingdom if the ravens ever left the tower. See? Fascinating. This image is a detail from a watercolor I painted from a photo I took of one of those ravens.
