Laid Back Cat

Oil on 7x5 gessoed hardboard.

Instead of my normal red, I pre toned the surface with a yellow ochre acrylic. In it's progression, it went through several stages that I really liked...sorry, I didn't take photos along the way. I aimed to keep much of it loose and mysterious. I learned quite a bit with this one.

The image for this painting was provided by Kay for this week's WDE at Wet Canvas.

FOR WE WALK BY FAITH, NOT BY SIGHT'
II CORINTHIANS 5:7

Soul Of A Nation

Oil on 5x7 hardboard.

This is my latest submission to Karin Jurick's Different Strokes From Different Folks. It's a fun challenge...she puts up a different photo each Wed. night. Artists from all over submit their renditions of it. The variety and creativity is both amazing and instructive.

Many years ago, my father earned 50 cents a day wearing footwear that looked exactly like this.
He worked that same job for over fifty years. The title of this piece refers to what the USA was built upon (in my opinion)...hard work, honesty, and a belief in God. I think we need a swift return to those roots.
