Cell phones and concrete surfaces don't mix well. My cell phone was a recent victim of a fall onto concrete. The result? A major lack of communication.
Just one of those days, a slice of life that made it's way onto a panel as a post card size daily painting.

Contemporary portraits are taking on exciting, unexpected new forms. Modern portraits often show elements of a person other than a face that express a person's personality as much as a traditional likeness can.
The Post and Courier ran an article about Daily Painters in which my artwork and blog were included. The cover story "Art of the Deal - All In A Day's Work" by Kyle Stock generated much interest in regional art blogs. (Check out the link to this article in the sidebar "Recommended Links" The Post and Courier Article...)
Being interviewed for the article and seeing reporters at work in the darkened expanse of a busy, city newsroom were the inspirations for today's painting.

Happy Memorial Day Weekend!
Here's a pastel I did of the show today. I'm using it as a reference for a Piccolo Spoleto Festival oil painting.
Today's my B'day so I think I'll celebrate today and paint tomorrow.
I recently made tacos for dinner. The bright colors and spicy flavors of the ingredients made a good meal and I think, an interesting painting.
This is a postcard size (4"x 6") oil painting on a wood panel. Bright colors, Spicy flavors. The title of this painting is definitely, "Hot Stuff".
In the collection of Mr. Fred Jenkins.
The fresh strawberries this year are the biggest I've ever seen. The strawberry in the painting was the size of a small plum and twice as sweet. So was the cantaloupe.
This is a postcard size (4"x6") oil painting on a wood panel. I've just finished both the fruit and painting. Both gave me great satisfaction. The title of this one, "Sweet Season".
Price: $75.00.
