This painting was the result of observing a young lady and her mother enjoying the afternoon at Swan Lake park in Tulsa. I had taken my easel to paint outdoors and during the whole experience, they never noticed they were the subject of a quick glimpse of life.
This is a painting done as a class demonstration. It's oil on masonite, 9" x 12" unframed. I use simple objects for still life reference when teaching but will begin several figures studies in the near future to add to this blog for a little variety.
This blog has been created to post my paintings online as I finish them. Each painting is available for sale. I'm an illustrator and I do have a business to contend with but I've become fascinated with the idea of marketing my images in oil on masonite or canvas and also make them available in giclee print form. That will come later but it'll make the images you'll see here more affordable. If you have any questions concerning my paintings, or want to offer your opinions of them, please feel free email me or post a reply.
