 We are surrounded by a spectacular environment.

It's all around us, yet it will NEVER go out of style.  Our landscape was evolving

millions of years before man appeared.  From this basic

 fact, depicting the environment stands as the

supreme expression of artistic pursuit.

 

 

I choose to highlight aspects of this environment.

         It's always beneficial to have a careful look around at any potential work site.  There's usually something great that can be seen and document-ed for future paintings.

 

(....and no, my hat does not cover a bald spot!  I have always had a full head of hair (as seen elsewhere on this site), and STILL DO, thank you!)

Will this close encounter result in placing me as a Musical Footnote in San Francisco music history?   Sure looks that way!

Located in Lake Tahoe, California in the Sierra Nevada Mountains

 

         

          We finally completed our re-location move back to LAKE TAHOE, Calif.   Sheesh!  What a relief. This high elevation lifestyle suits us. It's our "spiritual home".  This region is so scenic, it almost seems too attractive to be real.  But it's all here... and it's all too real.  It's breathtaking!

             I've lived in some beautiful areas, but LAKE TAHOE clearly ranks at the top of the list...incredible blue skies and clean air, (unlike most other places I've lived) making me feel regretful that I spent too many years in other, less appealing, areas of the country.

                 My wife, Judy, and I will take a few more weeks to relax and settle in, while I re-organize my studio arrangement, at which time I'll explore my numerous options for painting new works (including more additions to my abstract series of paintings) and the most appropriate method (for me) in regards to marketing my canvases.

              New, completed canvases will be posted on this page and on the Original Works pages herein, where views with enlargement capability are available, if desired.

Thank You for visiting the GOLD MOON STUDIO website.  A retro-look artist website featuring contemporary paintings. (We had more visitors in 2016 than ever before!  2018 and 2019 attracted more than twice the visitors that 2017 did).  We look forward to a productive 2021.

 

        *** UPDATE ***

                                June 27, 2020

 

You know how sometimes things work out and sometimes things don't?  We've all experienced that.  Amazingly, in this case, we've managed (just by random good luck) to land on the GREAT side!  

As this monstrous Coronavirus thing turns the world upside down, we've basically dodged the worst of this.  Lake Tahoe, where we now reside, has taken a  blow like the rest of the nation.  A few infected individuals, but no widespread Covid cases here...yet. But for us, personally, we're changing almost nothing from what we were doing before all this happened.

Our primary "inconvenience" is when we realize we need some more COFFEE CREAMER!!  God forbid we run out, right?  Aside from using hand sanitizer when we go grocery shopping, our life here continues on as always.  We're delighted about that, of course, but wish the best for everyone else who may be a LONG way from an easy lifestyle. 

 

SUCCESS HAS A PRICE, just like anything else.  But nothing worthwhile seems to happen overnight, and this is no different.  I haven't won the lottery.  I've just created a great opportunity for myself, and that's better than nothing.

I'll continue to paint and add things to this website as time allows.

Does this character look like a multi-millionaire? 

 

Under "normal" circumstances...perhaps not.  But this isn't really an average fellow. It's Sir Paul McCartney. (Or as we like to say, "It's Captain Eddie from the 'Hit Squad'").

I don't receive a dime from this guy (nor should I expect to), but that doesn't mean we can't be genetically related.  Such is the "fun" of modern technology in this Age of Information overload.
