A win! Outstanding Pastel in Bold Brush Painting Competition


It never hurts to get a "thumbs up" for one's art, right?  The Bold Brush Painting Competition for September sponsored by FASO is the first national contest I have entered...ever.  And what do you know?  The painting "Sweet Escape"(above) was chosen in the category of "Outstanding Pastel" which made for a nice day.  Thanks, FASO.

Three Amigos


Finally, I had the opportunity to work on a still life piece that had been calling my name.  I'm still not completely settled on a title, but someone suggested "Three Amigos" and so far it's my favorite.  This oil on canvas painting measuring 30" X 24" will soon be available at Ober Anderson Gallery in Kirkwood, Missouri.  I invite you to come in and see it in person.  The live version has a different impact from the smaller online image.
