“Telling His Stories”: 90 From Life – Day 83

Still Life Paintings 90 from life 0

“Telling His Stories”, oil on panel, 5×4 inches

This is day 83 of my 90 day challenge to do one new painting from life each day.

I loved the thought of this grizzled old pear having a whole lot of life stories to tell.

From my collectors

"I feel privileged to own such a beautiful work of art. It brings grace to my home, as well as feelings of warmth and peace."
S.K., Michigan

"Museum quality, perfect work. Beautiful, sophisticated, and poised."
L.K., New York

"The variety of his paintings over the years has made multiple purchases greatly satisfying. Each work is unique and awe-inspiring because his ability is transcendent."
G.T., Massachusetts

"I’ve known Jeff and collected his work for several years now. I always look forward with great anticipation when he shows his new work at local galleries and at art shows around the Boston area. The realism he achieves is astonishing. He brings a remarkable precision and clarity to his Still Lifes, and his compositions are always thoughtful and interesting. I always stop, look, and marvel at the paintings of his that I have hanging on my walls. I am both proud and honored to have him as part of my collection."
L.A., Massachusetts

"We have several of Jeff's paintings. While they are usually paintings of very everyday things, what he does with them is extraordinary. Reflections and light through glass are masterfully shown, and are particular examples of the 'inherent' light we see in all the things he paints, and that we love seeing in our house."
B.C., Massachusetts

About Me

Ten years ago I took a deep breath and stepped away from a successful career as a computer programmer to paint full time. Since that big move, I’ve made over 1000 paintings, and when possible I paint every single day with a zeal and passion to produce the very finest work for my collectors.

My focus is on the common, everyday objects we have all around us, transforming them into art that celebrates mood, drama, and sometimes simple humor.

I’ve shown pieces in numerous galleries throughout the US, been featured in several international art publications, and placed paintings in about 500 collections worldwide, but my biggest satisfaction remains the look on an art lover’s face when they deeply connect with one of my pieces and truly “get it”.

I spend my days looking around me to find inspiration for new work that will move and delight those who love my paintings. I hope you enjoy them as well – let me know if you did!
