Candy Apple #2 :: WIP
Posted on June 4, 2008
I have started another candy apple painting. This one measures about 19×25" so it should go faster than my first one did. I’ll post regular updates when I remember to take photos. :)

Still Life :: Bottles
Posted on January 20, 2008
I am working on a "January Project" via WetCanvas right now and thought I would post the work on it so far. This is a detail shot of the top of two bottles in the scene.
More to come later this week.

Gerber - WIP
Posted on January 4, 2008
Sticking with my "Painting a Week" I started this painting for my wife. It is large enough, 19×26", to cover the electrical panel that sticks out like a sore thumb on our wall.
The composition is simple enough that it can be completed rather quickly. Given my time lately, though, it may not be complete for Sunday. If that is the case I will post a painting study of some sort to keep up to my goal.
Here is a most recent close up of the petals.

‘Solace” - Landscape WIP
Posted on December 6, 2007
This is my newest painting. 12×12" hardboard coated with a mix of gesso and 4F pumice.
Always wanted to paint water and overall it is not complicated at all. The more I paint, the more I see the world as I would paint it, not how it exists. Very odd.
Just a bit more work on this one, then it goes in as a submission for another juroured show.
The final version can now be seen in my gallery.

Candy Apple 01 Painting WIP
Posted on November 1, 2007
Here is my latest work in progress. As promised in a previous post, I have started to paint the Candy Apples I photographed a couple months ago. So far I have about 4 hours into it.
Everything is progressing relatively well. Taking regular breaks has been the key with this painting as when I come back to it I always find something to correct.
I have been using Unison pastels for most of it but yern for some pastel pencils to get in all the detail I would like. It is 9×12″ on sanded LeCarte paper.
I will post more later…
UPDATE: added newest image.
