Happy New Year, Native American Sketch

I finished this sketch today.  I then realized I have not posted in this year yet.  This is a pencil sketch of Stephen Small Salmon from Montana.  He is a member of the Pend d'Oreille tribe from the Flathead Reservation in Montana.  I had great photos of him from our trip up to Montana.

Sakanet Light Rhode Island sketch

This is a pencil sketch of the Sakannet Lighthouse at Little Compton, Rhode Island.

Victoria Sketch

This is a pencil and chalk sketch of Victoria, a great woman taken from the world much too soon.  She was a great friend of our family.  She will be sorely missed.

Lake Hiawatha painting

This is a Holiday painting for my Dad. I have many happy childhood memories of fishing at this northern Colorado lake near Red Feather Lakes, Colorado.  The sunsets over the lake were almost as good as the fishing.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas,  I have not posted in a while since I have been working on presents and other things which cannot be posted yet.  I will endeavor to post more in the coming weeks.  Happy Holidays!

La Jolla Beach Commissions finished

I finished and shipped my La Jolla Beach commission.  This is an oil painting 11 x 14 inches and was a fun challenge of waves and blues.

Solomon's Island Bridge Plein Air

This is a small Plein Air study I did from the Pier Restaurant at Solomon's Island looking west to the sunset.  It finally dried enough to put it on the scanner.  It was a fun one and a bit of a challenge.  It came out decent for the time I had to get it down.
