Saturday I started this little guy. It needs a few more passes at it. I’m going to work on my patience and spend more than a day on it. I’m donating this to my daughters school art auction, just as a little silent auction piece. So I wanted to pick a subject that would appealContinue reading “Spring Boise Foothills WIP”

Me
Back in the day. I love this picture our school photographer, Mark Honbo, caught. 1993 UC Davis. Go Ags!
San Francisco-The Presidio
Spring break (still) day 4. The trees along the coast of Northern California are incredible. I’ve always loved the shapes Monterey Cypress trees twist themselves into to reach out through the fog for every bit of sunlight they can get. I hope to take many more photographs next time we are in CA. Better yet, paintContinue reading “San Francisco-The Presidio”
Sketch for new painting-Cypress Trees

Spring Break- Ukiah
Oil on Canvas 8X10 Still chronicling sprig break over here on my little art blog. This has been a mostly fun project for me, and is forcing me to try some things I’ve never done before, for better or worse. This piece I’m posting today is one that I painted last year after Spring Break.Continue reading “Spring Break- Ukiah”
