Working on the French Barracks
Been working on some old French fort barracks in Blaye, France. Can’t get a good color photo of the work, but it is nearly finished.

Visited my oldest in TN last year and went with the granddaughters to Rock Creek Park, TN for some hiking. Took a really cool picture of tall trees in the mist. This is day 2 of the painting.
My grandson, Blake, is 3 years old and was visiting from Pittsburgh with my youngest son and family. My son asked me to have Blake doodle on a canvas and then for me to make a painting out of it. It isn’t finished yet, but I started following his lines with colors on my palette. What do you think it is becoming? 🙂
Two Items Got Into this Juried Show!
A plein Air painting done in May-June 2016.
This painting came to me in a vision in my head. My mom doesn’t like it as it is too “modern,” and it is a wild child for me: an experimental piece. My realism and impressionist paintings did not get into this show, but this one did.
Entered into the Wimberley Valley Juried Gallery Show in Feb. 2017
I am torn between realism and experimental styles, so I’d have to define my interests as eclectic. From a photo I took of railroad tracks on the way to Blanco.
