Helderberg Escarpment


This is a painting that is going to be sold at silent auction outside of Albany New York at the end of September. Its currently a work in progress at this stage (I think the yellow photographed strangely). It is one of the largest paintings I have done to date.

Water Colors




Some new watercolor work I have done mostly for my class, my students wanted to do some still life flower painting so this is some of what I did as a demo. The Autumn picture is a copy I did of a Winslow Homer painting of the same name that I really like.

MortarMonster

I did this starting out as a demo for one of my digital painting students, I ended up liking it and taking it a few hours further. The rendering is pretty rough but I like the final result so far do you guys think I should render it more or is it good the way it is ?

Portrait

A new portrait commission done in Oils.

New Stuff and Old Stuff

This is a painting I did of Siesta Key in Florida as part of a series of paintings about the ocean the rest are top secret ! These are both in Oils.
This is actually a painting that is a few years old but I still like it and I just had a bunch of my stuff photographed so I thought I would share it with the world.

And This

A new watercolor, which I haven't done in a while as well (I cant wait for the weather to get cooler so I can get back outside and paint !). I did this as a demo in my watercolor class.

Oh Yeah Some Sci-FI stuf





Long Time No Post

I thought I should put up some new stuff, I know its been a long long time overdue. It hasn't been due to lack of new work but in fact most stuff I had been putting up here was personal stuff and explorations. I have had little time for this kind of work lately because I have actual commissions to do, which is great but they don't want them posted willy-nilly online so oh well! I have been able to do some more personal work and I am gonna share a backlog of the best of it now, I know you can hardly wait !This is a painting of Ben Nevis in Scotland, there is a bit of a bad glare on the left side and I need to have this one rephotographed which I will be doing with a big group of new oil paintings soon so keep on checking back.This is another oil painting of Tilden park outside Berkeley Ca, one of my favorite places to go when I lived out in San Fran.Another Oil this one is a small study of a goose that I think turned out pretty well.

This is actually an acrylic painting of a "Civil War" bridge near by, I did this one in the winter which explains all the orange colored leaves. I actually haven't done much acrylic since this one and have really been enjoying using oils in my portrait and landscape work(other than the horrible smell).

Portrait Sketch


Just a quick portrait sketch I did on the computer to practice because I havent posted anything in a while.

Devil Assassin

Another Art Order challenge piece. This time it is supposed to be a Devil Assassin not really my best work and compared to some of the other entries this time not very impressive but I didnt spend very much time on it between other things.
