Castle Hill Lighthouse Ocean Drive Newport RI



 Finished commission.  It was a beautiful day.  The fog lifted, the sun came out who could ask for more. Did the old step back to view the painting and nearly fell off the rocks.  Won't do that again.

Started a commission of Castle Hill Lighthouse.  Beautiful morning to be out on Ocean Drive.  A bit foggy and misty but still able to get the painting started.

Azalea Park Orlando Florida Washington Bridge


Beautiful Azalea Park
Had a wonderful day finishing this painting at Azalea part.  It was a warm
and beautiful day painting with the Central Florida Plein Air Painters.  We meet
here in the month of Feb. on Tuesdays and Saturday.  There was a babbling brook
running at my feet.  Couldn't have been any nicer.

Langford Park Orlando Florida


Langford Park Orlando
Today Central Florida Plein Air Painters had a paint out at Langford Park in Orlando.  It started out to be a grey morning, but as the morning progressed it turned out to be just beautiful.  It is always a challenge for this Northerner to paint the Florida landscape.  I believe I am getting in the grove.
Looking forward to many more days of painting.  We will be painting here on Tuesdays and Saturdays for the month of Feb.

2 sisters



This is the day for the finishing touches.  These 2 little sisters are like china
dolls.  It has been wonderful making them come to life on my little canvas.  5 x 7.
There is nothing like a sister's love.  I do miss my big sister.

2 Sisters



Step 2.  More detail filled in.  The girls are starting to come to life.  Can't wait to paint in the red dress and fur jacket.

2 Little Sisters



I was asked to do a commission to be done for New Years day.  I am not that comfortable
doing faces.  But I will try.  These 2 sisters look like china dolls.  Here is step one after the initial  painted sketch.  5 x 7 on panel. Just the faces are painted in.

Three Dogs In a Convertible Newport RI


Three Dogs In a Convertible Newport RI
Time to paint in Oscar.  His fur is much more unrully.  The part we love best about him.  I hope I can pull this off.  It has been an enormous challenge for me.  I have enjoyed every minute.  Watching their little faces immerge from the flat under painting.  Cannot wait to see it in a frame.

The work continues.  I am happy with the way the car came out.  the windshield etc.  I have included the original picture of the 2 dogs in the convertible plus the top one is a photo copy with Oscar super imposed along side.  I am happy with the out come so far.  I will let the underpainting of the dogs dry for a few days.  So I can add pure light color and have it stay clean.
