Woman in Red and Tommy with Mommy
Well, I haven't been very good lately about updating my blog or web site, 
sooo oo, today we post two finished paintings! The first is "Woman in Red" she is essentially ...me. I was quite home sick, so I just painted myself on the beach. You know, I can adjust to living just about anywhere, but when you come from the coast, it gets under your skin and you experience withdrawal when you can't smell the salt water, hear the sea gulls or stick your toes in the water. Right now I'm living in the Permian basin, translation, a dessert with the permanent smell of oil. Not quite the same as the ocean. :-/

These next two are of the same painting with a close up of Tommy the King Charles. Debora, Tommy's mommy commissioned this painting a couple of weeks ago and just was crazy about the way it turned out. Deborah is from the south east and of course I am in New Mexico so I didn't think I would get a chance to deliver the painting my self. But, as it happens, Deborah was here again two weeks later and I got to see her face as I unveiled the work, It is almost the best part of painting.
