Well, this is the end of my 2024–2025 swimming season. For the next few months, I have to dedicate all my energies to my art gallery in Provincetown. I’m very proud for having my longest and most consistent swimming season yet. See you at the pool again in Oct! In the meantime, stay tuned for art! 😆

A new little painting of the Provinceland dunes, this time at night. Back in 2018 I spent a few days in one of the famed dune shacks, and I remember one evening at sunset, everything was bathe in an unexpected purple light. 18x24 in., contact me for info!

A lot of new art has been added to my online store recently, take a look! studio-lacombe.square.site/s/shop

I just created these two little paintings, trying to see if I can bring the human figure back into my art. I call these “We Choose Joy.” What do you think, should I make more of these?

A new little painting, a very little one, tiny in fact, at 36x48 inches. ;-) I guess summer is coming if I'm already painting beach umbrellas! Contact me for info.

I wish this gym had better lighting, better mirrors, better locker rooms, better lockers (mine got stuck shut this morning), better showers… But hey, it has a pool and I’m thankful for that!

Oh hi there! I didn’t see you come in! Yes, I’m back. I was away for a while to open a big show in Virginia, and then to visit some friends in Washington DC. But I’m back in studio now, so stop by and say hi! Come see what I’m working on!

My show is up at the Gay Street Gallery in Washington, Virginia, right in the foothills of Shenandoah National Park! Opening reception is Tomorrow, Saturday March 22, from 4-6pm

Friends in the DC/VA/MD area! Join me this Saturday, March 22, 4-6pm, for the opening of my big exhibit at the Gay Street Gallery in Washington, VA (aka Little Washington). The show will be on until May 20th, 2025. Gay St Gallery 337 Gay Street Washington, VA 22747

"Sails nr.31 - Moonlit Harbor," 16 x 40 inches, framed. Wouldn't that look good over your mantle? :-) Contact me for info.

Tape paint and rip. Tape paint and rip. Tape paint and rip. Or something like that…

Another broken, shattered, destroyed tree, but that still maintains the hope, the potential to revive and regrow… I wonder why that image keeps popping in my head? Is there something going on in the world? 😵‍💫😣🙄🤬🫣

It was 17’F outside this morning and the pool felt equally frigid. 🥶🥶🥶 Does that count as a polar plunge?

Splish splash 🏊‍♂️

New painting in the Tree series, “Tree nr. 14 - Phoenix,” 24x30 inches. It’s another phoenix, like the last one. Somehow there’s something reassuring at the moment about thinking of rising from the fall…

Keeping warm in the pool! It’s been 🥶 these last few days!

I realized recently that I owned swimsuits in pretty much all colors… except purple. So I saw a problem, and fixed it! 😆

It’s winter. There’s snow in the dunes! “Provincelands nr.4 - Winter,” 24x24 inches, acrylic on canvas. Soon available in gallery and online.

Back in black! I had to take a forced three weeks off from swimming because of a severe case of tennis elbow. I’m glad to be back, however, I only did about 65 to 70% of my usual speed and strength today. And I’m glad to report my arm fared quite well.

My latest painting of the Provincelands dunes! It’s probably the most beautiful natural feature of Provincetown, and also one of the least known. Everyone should go hiking in the dunes when they come here! 30x48 inches, not yet titled, acrylic on canvas. Contact me for info!

“Trees nr.13 - Phoenix,” 30x48 inches, acrylic on canvas. A number of situations around me lately remind me of a shattered, splintered, exploded tree. But often trees are resilient, tough and invincible. With even the tiniest root, the most minuscule seed, they return like a phoenix from the flame.
