Thomas

Here's my oldest son Tom sitting in front of a painting of the farm where he was born.

Bobby

At Christmas 2007 I painted portraits of my 2 sons for my wife.
Here is the youngest son in his Mowhawk.

Snow Hill glowing Photinia

Here's another painting created at Snow Hill during the paint-out. 70 painters gathered in this small historic town.

Spring Spirit sold


Christie



This young woman was available at the Snow Hill event to sit for a portrait. There were four other painters who took advantage of her unmoving visage. It was a wonderful opportunity to paint the figure in the landscape. We started around 10am and finished around 2pm. Of course the light changed dramatically but that's to be expected when painting outdoors.

Kayak Trail


Hometown Sweetness


Painted during the Paint Snow Hill event, this painting was recently donated to an area vet at an event where local VFW members were taken to Washington DC to see the memorial to veterans of foreign wars. I thought the scene was a poetic tribute our country.
