Woman in Shadow

2005-06-06T14:16:00.000-07:00

Here is my second attempt at Oil Paint. I hope you enjoy! I have two copies here because the first shows good color but has a glare from the flash and the second shows better detail.

This is an oil painting of a woman in shadow with light from a window touching her skin.

Here is my first attempt at Oil Paint. I'm going to start doing some works for sale. This is the first and I've already got a potential buyer. This is so exciting! :) Thanks Dale!

After some encouragement from one of my very talented cousins I've decided to start experimenting in colored medium again.

This is a picture I did in oil pastel of a womans lower back.

Experiments in Painting

Here are a couple examples of my attempts at acrylic painting. I need much improvement and these pictures were done several years ago. I plan on trying again soon.

I wanted to experiment in painting the naked human form. I'm very interested in body structure, musculature, and bone structure.

My first Blog

2005-03-31T17:46:00.000-08:00

This is my first Blog post. I'm going to use this Blog to post my artwork for public viewing and comment. I'm still learning and apprciate constructive comments on my artwork. I've been drawing since about 5th grade and enjoy it. I later started experimenting with different medium including pen and ink, charcoal, scratch art, and acrylic.
