Current work


Hey there. I thought I'd just show what I am currently working on. At the top you see the painting I'm working on, you can see the drawn, but not yet painted girl by the tree. This is coming together pretty well and I'm having fun with it.
The bottom painting is actually a re-working of the color pencil piece I posted on March 30th. It was just one of those pieces where it didn't look that good. I was following the colors of the photo, it didn't work right, so I just used colors out of my imagination, and it still didn't work out. I decided to try it as a painting and I was happier with it. I wasn't sure about the owl though. I was trying to keep a mystical feel to the piece, I thought it might help.
Once during a full moon, or close to full, I was sitting in my yard and an owl came and sat about 3 or 4 feet away from me. A friend of mine told me there was probably something spiritual or mystical happening. I don't know, but it was pretty cool. Either way, this piece isn't fully done yet, you can still see some of my pencil marks, but I'm close. Just thought I'd show it. Everyone take care and have fun!

Gladie exhibit



Hey everyone. Well, today I put up the exhibit in the Gladie Center in the Red River gorge. I've sold some paintings there in the past so here's hoping 08 will bring good news for me. Now you may wonder about the square blob in the center. I didn't know until I got there that they have bolted in a huge photo of some sundown somewhere. It's a nice photo, but I had to work around it and didn't think I should put it on the blog. The photographer might get angry and I couldn't blame him or her. I didn't look who did it. Actually, I was surprised I got all my work up.
I went for a 2 and one half hour hike after hanging this. I went to the Rock Bridge, for those who know what and where it is. For those who don't, I added the photos above. I paint nature so I like to keep in touch with it. I might paint the top photo.
I'd like to also mention, that I have been forgetting to put my website and email in case anyone wants to drop me a line, so I'm going to start putting those at the end of all my posts. I'm still getting used to this thing called blogging, so please excuse my lack of computer savvy. Everyone take care and talk to you soon.

Hey everyone




Wow, it's been a while. I've been busy with some things, sorry. I have been selling some prints. There was an Art Walk in Paris KY April 11th. I sold some prints I had made from the pics above. From top to bottom is The Haunting of Anglin, The Moon above Anglin Falls, and Raven's Home. I'm working on getting an Ebay store to make these available for sell. I'm also working on some smaller paintings for Ebay. The smaller the easier to ship. I have some other news for later in the week, and I'll say more about the Ebay thing soon. Take care and have fun everyone!
