Headed Down Pearl


6 x 6 oil on hardboard - SOLD

The reference photo for this was taken at dusk one day as we were headed to the MS Museum of Art for an exhibition.  There were WAY more cards than I put in, I wanted more of a empty street look but left a couple in.

Rehearsal


12 x 16 oil on canvas panel - SOLD

I've been working on this for a few days.  The reference photo was actually taken outside on a porch which made the dancers in heavy shadow but I tried to work with it any way.  I had to make up the background.

Experimenting



I have been experimenting lately with new colors and my new brush I got in Atlanta a couple of weeks ago.  It's a cat's tongue filbert and I really like the feel of it.   I like the loose quality it produces and it picks up the paint to well.  My new favorite thing!

The Smoker


16 x 20 oil on canvas - NFS

Finally finished this one - see some places that don't "feel" right but I'm leaving it alone for now.
