I love the mix of resilience and unruliness: fresh green runners tumbling over the rim while spent blooms curl back to seed. The dappled light stitches it together, turning ordinary containers into a small portrait of care, neglect, and the quiet work of growing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 128, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtist's Statement:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eI strive to captivate viewers with oil paintings of landscapes and still lifes using architecture, natural scenery, and vibrant displays. I work in a representational style, aiming to combine an interplay of color, depth, and intrigue. Each painting is intended to inspire, sustain interest, and sometimes to whet the appetite. Displaying an array of subjects and sizes, my still lifes play with colorful fruits and vegetables. Lately I have been using the palette knife to create an added layer of texture and depth. My intention is to maintain a representational quality while showcasing visible brush strokes and diverse edges, resulting in paintings that transcend mere photographs, exuding a distinct painterly essence. In my landscapes I use both brushwork and palette knife, with subjects ranging from fall woodland scenes to plein air paintings of nature. I am a member of Oil Painters of America, the James River Art League, and the Metropolitan Richmond Artist Association. I have a permanent exhibit at Crossroads Art Center.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"July Annual Gallery Members Exhibition 2026","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52193311981870,"sku":null,"price":800.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0780\/8101\/files\/Haubenstock_Mike_FlowerPots_Oil_750.jpg?v=1781304467","url":"https:\/\/www.crossroadsartcenter.com\/products\/haubenstock-mike-title-flower-pots","provider":"Crossroads Art Center","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
