The Grand Tour begins in September, 1996, at the start of my first European tour as a performing songwriter.
With a tiny kit purchased in Alkmaar, I made these paintings during two long tours back and forth across the continent, between trains, on days off and on a break along the Côte d'Azur. A running narrative describes the setting and circumstance of each painting as I struggled to keep it all together, alone, with my guitar strapped to my back and a suitcase full of CDs. 57 pages with 19 illustrations. |

The paintings in Charleston Watercolors were made between the spring of 1997 and mid-summer 1999, as I began my slow transition from full-time touring as a performing songwriter to teaching drawing and watercolor.
These watercolors and memoirs chronicle my explorations of Charleston and the Low Country and discoveries of their remarkable delights. 55 pages with 24 illustrations. |

Along with notes about my trailblazing, each painting is accompanied with an excerpt from Walden by Henry David Thoreau that describes the scene I painted far better than ever I could. 26 pages with 6 illustrations. |
