A SELECTION OF JIM'S NEWER ARTWORK
Sunflowers & Chipmunk Garden
Over the years, Jim has been inspired to paint a variety of sunflower paintings, most recently his Sunflowers &Chipmunk Garden. This particular one is a tribute to several chipmunks who were responsible for planting the garden beside our backyard fence. They scavenged sunflower seeds that fell from our bird feeders and, although not intentionally, they occasionally dropped a few as they ran back home. Mother Nature took over and we soon had this lovely little garden.
Look closely and you’ll see one of those little chipmunks with cheeks stuffed full of sunflower seeds. Currently on exhibit in Chelsea Painters Art Fair 2020 Exhibit, Jim’s original 20" x 16" framed acrylic-on-canvas Sunflowers & Chipmunk Garden is available for purchase. If interested, please contact him via the email icon, top right.

Full Moon & Raccoon
Jim’s Full Moon & Raccoon depicts a closeup view of pine trees in our yard along with one of the critters who occasionally visit us. One moonlit night, Jim saw the raccoon climbing along a pine tree branch, and he knew what his next painting would be... if you look closely, you’ll see the late-night critter among the pine tree needles and cones, made easier to see in the bright light of the full moon.
If you’re interested in purchasing this original 30" x 40" framed acrylic-on-canvas painting, or if you’d like to have Jim create one of his energy paintings as a gift for a relative or friend, please contact him using the email icon, top right. Jim’s Full Moon & Raccoon is also on exhibit in Chelsea Painters Art Fair 2020 Exhibit through the end of August 2020.

Parrot Pandemonium
Jim was inspired to create his Parrot Pandemonium, as well as several other parrot paintings, after he painted a parrot piece on commission for a woman who loves scarlet macaws. (Visit here for details on Jim’s commissioned work.) Although Jim enjoys painting all kinds of birds, these brightly colored parrots are especially suitable for his energy style of artwork.
Jim’s original 24" x 24" framed acrylic-on-canvas Parrot Pandemonium is available for purchase and currently on display in Chelsea Painters Art Fair 2020 Exhibit. Or if you’d like to commission him to create one of his energy-style animal paintings for you — with birds, dogs, cats, horses, squirrels, deer, or other animals — please contact Jim via the email icon, top right.

The Village Gobblers
Once again, Mother Nature has provided amazing inspiration for Jim, this time in the form of seven, wild, North American turkeys who flew over the fence and into our back yard one afternoon (yes, wild turkeys fly occasionally).
Jim selected three from the flock for his new energy-style painting: a female who wore a rare shade of white, plus a juvenile and an adult male who both wore the more typical black, bluish brown hue, with the tom proudly displaying his tail fan feathers.
Jim’s original 30" x 24" framed acrylic-on-canvas painting, The Village Gobblers, is for sale. Please contact Jim via the email icon, top right, if you're interested in purchasing his work, or if you have any questions.

Smokies & Red-Tailed Hawk
On a road trip heading south, a red-tailed hawk kept us company for many miles – flying overhead, disappearing, then reappearing – serving as our guide on the winding roads that cut through the Smoky Mountains. This beautiful creature of nature inspired Jim to paint his Smokies & Red-Tailed Hawk.
Jim's original 20" x 20" gallery-wrapped acrylic-on-canvas Smokies & Red-Tailed Hawk includes the sunset sky that was the backdrop for the graceful and beautiful flying hawk. Please contact Jim via the email icon at the top regarding this painting, which is available for purchase.

Full Moon Rising
The full moon is reflecting on the still water, as seen on a beautiful evening in Florida... this is the view looking across Barnes Sound on the Overseas Highway as it heads to the Atlantic Ocean.
Full Moon Rising celebrates a wrong turn Jim took while on a road trip to Florida, which turned into an interesting visual experience and a short side trip they otherwise wouldn't have had. Jim created this painting in celebration of the unexpected pleasures that life holds.
Jim's original 34" x 24" framed acrylic-on-canvas Full Moon Rising is currently available for purchase. Please contact Jim via the email icon at the top right.

Twin Pines & Lake Martha Sunset
This painting was inspired by Jim’s mother who, the first time she visited us at our current home, was convinced she saw a lake just beyond the pine trees in our back yard. There isn’t one there, but the idea was intriguing and Jim thought, why not create a painting as a tribute to his mother’s great imagination?
The result is Twin Pines & Lake Martha Sunset, which depicts a view of the setting sun behind two stately red pine trees, on the idyllic shores of Lake Martha. If you look closely, you’ll see a fox and two bunnies enjoying the view. Jim's original Twin Pines & Lake Martha Sunset, a 20" x 20" gallery-wrapped acrylic-on-canvas painting, is available for purchase.
