11X14 Golden OPEN Acrylic on Canvas

The beginning of my next work, drawing more than a bit from Dan McCaw...Dang, OPENs are fun!

"Monster Tracks and A Little Boy"

I was doing a paint sketch of my little guy from life, and stepped away to check the wetcanvas.com action. Meanwhile, he picked up a brush and decided it was a collaboration, ha! Ah, my little artist--check out that heart he brought out in it! What a sweetie. I let him name it...Though, since it *is* a collaboration, I should add my two cents: "Monster Tracks and a Little Boy (Whose Mama Loves Him!)"

OPEN Acrylics on Watercolor Paper

the latest little studies, and our Solstice painting!

Dec. 13th, After the Sweat Lodge

I had to put something down, I just smeared some paint around, and after I was done, I looked at it, and it was my favorite symbol! totally unintentional...

A bit of a start on the Solstice Backdrop...

So here it is, tomorrow the color goes on via our local youth group, I can't wait! I had the measurements all figured out for a 9x12, it turned out to be an 8'x10', ay! So it took a few hours to figure out, but it's all laid out now...that was the hard part, the fun part will be filling it in...

And here's the sketches for a Solstice painting!

Working on a 12"x12" model of the 2nd pic, which will be turned into an 8'x8' backdrop by Dec. 19th (What am I thinking???)

For Sean Fitzgerald

A dear friend of mine got into a car accident on black ice and left us way too soon...I spent the weekend of his memorial listening to his music and wailing. Here's what I did to soothe myself...it turned into the ocean...I love going to the water when I'm troubled...
