The Poker Game


24"x 36" 
Oil on Linen
China village life. Men played poker in the street, 
out side their houses, in the parks, everywhere. 
They didn't seem to be gambling, just having fun. 

This painting is for sale. I can post to anywhere, world wide.
Please visit my web site for the price, and email details.

Geese in the Lane




We visited a small village in rural China, where we discovered these geese, looking like characters from a children's book. So cute. I wonder what they thought of us, taking photos.

The Visitor on Wednesday


20 x 36"
Oil on Canvas

We visited this rice mill in Southern China, and were able to watch the farmers using the same method that has been in place for hundreds of years. I was taken with the light and shadows in the room.
