Thank you Amanda. I looked at your site. I love your work!
I was visited by ABC5 Boston's "Chronicle" about my quest to visit and paint all of Maine's lighthouses. The host, Anthony, producer, Jon, and cameraman, Rich, couldn't have been nicer. The piece is online here if anyone is interested.

Black and white drawing of a little girl looking to the side with a quizzical expression on her face. Sketch by portrait artist, Dominic White
This drawing was done from one of the photos a client sent for a portrait commission. The client decided to use another photo for the portrait, but I loved the expression on this one so much I did a small 5x7 sketch as a bonus portrait.

New hand-drawn art up on my print on demand site, myartonstuff.com/dancing-leav.... "Dancing Leaves" was inspired during a drive in Maine last fall when I saw a line of leaves that appeared to be dancing as they were blown across the road in front of me. #dancingleaves #autumn #fall #independentart
My new "Hiking Animals" artwork is now available on my print on demand site, myartonstuff.com/hiking-anima.... These were inspired by the trail markers I see on my hikes around Northern Maine and the animals I met along the way. #hikinganimals #animaldesigns #animalsontrailmarkers

Maine journalist Troy Bennett asked me to sit down with him and talk about life after my wife's death and deciding to quit my job to become a full time artist. That gresat conversation led to this article. Troy is a Portland, Maine treasure and you should follow his substack.

Iβm finally able to post this portrait as it is now in the hands of the recipient. It was commissioned by two sisters in Seattle as a birthday present to their mom. It was a lot of fun to paint.

I love playing with different media and letting my mind wander away from landscapes and portraits. I post my favoite random illustrations at MyArtOnStuff.com. The art links to third-party Print-On-Demand shops where the designs are available on a variety of home goods. I hope my art sparks joy.
I've always lived near the water and have had a fascination with lighthouses all my life. Last year I set a goal to eventually visit and paint every lighthouse in Maine. MaineLighthousePaintings.com is a blog I to created to chronicle that journey. #mainelighthouses #mainelighthouseart
