Painting again is wonderful !! I started an ongoing series of ink pen drawings on couples in 2013. Image #1 is the sketch, Image #2 is the finished drawing. The idea for the three paintings I’m working on now, Image #4 is an exploration of the drawing. Tentatively these new pieces are called Marriage: Three Views. Image #3 is the work in progress, which was posted on the website last year. I’ve been told marriage is work perhaps those who are married can relate to these pieces. You can see the drawings on the website here.

A GENTLEMAN’S GAME
This was such a fun painting for me. I had a blast with the colors, which were vibrant and unusual. The composition is different and the painting is 3ft 1/8 in high—large for me. My goal this year God willing, is to produce larger works of art. I like playing with patterns and had a chance to throw in lines going in different directions. The painting was completed in July 2014 for the exhibition at Levine Music and is now in a Private Collection. You can see two of the sketches that were made for the painting above.

Last week 15 December the murals for Ballou were installed. Praise God! just in time for the ribbon cutting ceremony Wednesday. The school is amazing —a wonderful environment for learning. In the these images above you can see details of the completed paintings and photos of them being scanned with a Cruse scanner. Both originals are approximately 4ft wide. With the digital images captured the next step in the process was to work with the vendor that would produce the wall murals.
