On this venture of mine I plan to do a number of things. To post paintings which are for sale...to post a daily painting...and show some works in progress( demos). The art will be in Oils with an Acrylic sneaking in now and then.
I like Close Up Cow and I Kid You Not, probably because I especially like farm animals. Do you paint from life or photographs? I take it the bison and the wolf are not from life. The butterfly is very pretty. I'm from Ohio, too. My sister lives in Columbus.
Thanks for your comment, Cathey. For the last couple of years, I have painted a lot from photos(my own whenever possible). But I have painted many years from life which makes it fairly easy to translate the live feel into painting from photos. Nice to hear from a fellow Ohio resident.
I enjoy painting all subjects. To cause a viewer to pause and see the beauty in even a mundane object. But I must admit my special interest is animals of all sorts.
While I did attend the Columbus College of Art And Design for one year, I am largely self taught. My main contemporary influences are Richard Schmid and Scott Burdick.
Hope you enjoy my art, and please feel free to comment, or email me ...I'd love to hear your questions or thoughts!
Very nice painting.
