Here is a new painting, "Still Life with Mango"!  It's mostly finished, but will probably be touched up here and there.

Here is the latest on my current painting...!


I've started a new still life painting.  Here is an early look.  :)

No fancy mixed media on this one, it'll just be straight acrylic on MDF.  

Thanks for looking!

Here's a quickie.... "Two Oranges".  Took maybe a couple hours to create.   :)

Acrylic, wax pastel, pigmented india ink, and molding paste on Masonite, 5" x 4".


This is a small abstract painting that I've created.  It's called "The Result of the Experiment", in the spirit of my new efforts to work in abstraction.   :)  The main goal here was to get some color and texture going, while staying representational enough that the picture is simple to relate to.

This version of the painting has just some minor adjustments made to the lemon and orange.

I should be getting this image added to my website by tonight...

Here's a new artwork!  I wanted to create something in the spirit of a Paul Klee painting, and something to just have fun with.  Klee painted pictures which were simple in their representational aspect, but which gave the eye plenty to look at in terms of texture and color.

I have an exciting new assortment of Caran D'Ache wax pastels.  :) They are water-resistant, and can be drawn with over dried acrylic paint.  The only problem is that I'm afraid to use them!    :-|  They are new to me...
