Life can be a surprise in the worst and the in the best ways. I never dreamed of having a studio but this happened and it has defined me. My boss at Blick Art Materials needed someone to take over rent space. That was another best surprise. The studio is character-rich and only six blocks from my house. I was concerned about the expenses. However, my wife was pleased to have a place for me to work on resin. It was better than using the picnic table or the garage. This studio is ideal! The outside is charming and the windows beckon people from Leavenworth Street to stop and come inside. I have been here for a year now. I’ve made many resin artworks to test my ideas. These works show my abilities. I’ve taken a couple commissions. I hope to have more. I want to sell resin art that I build and keep this going in my retirement.

Open House Saturday, November 30th, 2024. This is my grand opening! If you are here in Omaha or nearby, please stop in to say hello. We can talk about art and share ideas. There are so many reasons to make art. My reason is simple decoration. I would like to hear what inspires you. I do follow my interests which are oceans, mountains, geometry, windows, and anything transparent and colorful.

Stunning Resin Art Inspired by the Pacific

Ocean wave casted in clear resin with quartz rocks and a white and brown Mexican sea shell poking out

This beautifully colored hard resin sculpture captures the energy and excitement of the Pacific Ocean. I lived in Oregon for a while and visit the ocean when I can. Watching the waves crash on the rocks is something that draws me in and holds me captive. This spectacular wave reminds me of just that feeling. Also available: green with a big dark grey rock and clear with a beautiful sea shell and quartz rocks.

I’ve always been interested in topography and landscapes. Something curious about a scene is that its look can change according to the wildflowers growing on it. That is where abstract landscape art is born. I can visualize land with changes due to light, vegetation, snow, water. I painted this scene in resin after reading about bioluminescence. Plankton of a certain species will glow in the dark. The water is filled with the plankton and so the entire scene is changed.
