Hey! I've been gone to the Great Rocky Mountains for the past two weeks and haven't blogged but now I'm back, and I plan to do some different and new kind of paintings! Well, slightly different. I've avoided buildings and tried to stick to the deep woods, but I've been getting an urge to paint the Shaker Town area here close to Lexington. It's a great and beautiful place. I also worked with a new model, who is a great friend, and I plan to do her all the justice I can in these paintings. She was nervous about posing, but she did great and I hope to show it in these paintings. I worked on the drawing while on vacation. It was hard to do at first, drawing muscles in the brain are not the same as painting muscles in the brain, so after working on a few paintings it takes a few drawings before I get back into the swing of it. I also used my wife as an adviser (as always) to help me along. But anyway, here is the first drawing of this new series and I actually have the painting half way done. I accidentally dropped our poor camera in Boulder Colorado, so I don't know how long it will be before I post the painting. I was taking a pic of a mountain from my bike and then just dropped the poor camera. I was still able to get the pics I already made onto the computer, but picture taking is over for a while. Everyone take care and have fun and I'll put on more pics as soon as I get a new camera. Until then, hug your camera today and show it everyday that you care, for these accidents happen. Have fun!

The Scout II
Hey, I have finished my most recent painting, The Scout II. I meant to post the earlier stages of this painting a couple of days ago, but I finished the painting before I had a chance to so here you go. I looking forward to the fall season, I hope the fall color really kicks in this year. It's seemed last year the was more yellow than red and orange in the trees, so maybe this year those colors will be there and I can have some good modeling sessions. I had fun with this painting, it reminded me of the Scout painting earlier so that explains the name. She keeps on a scouting! Oh, and if anyone would want to comment on any of this, that would be cool, I've been wondering who all has been reading this. Everyone take care and have fun!

An even newer painting
Hey everyone! I have forgotten about the previous post, I will have that finished painting on here this week. I went on to another painting which you can see above. I titled it, The Scout. I'm not done yet, but I thought I'd put it out here to let everyone see what I have done so far. This model, Robin, was tickled to death to get to pose with the stick. She kept making Kung Fu poses, which wasn't what I was looking for, but it was fun to see her have fun. This is not a Kung Fu pose however, here she is looking out over the boulders. For the mood of the painting, is she exploring new land for the first time, or is she observing the land that she loves. Is stick is a walking tool for the rocky terrain or a means of protection? I will show you more once I get it done in a few days. Everyone take care and have fun!
