Art Show Girl, 5x5 study


It seems like many artists' are doing paintings of figures in art galleries or art shows; I thought I would give my painting view of the subject. There is something about a person viewing a painting that tells a story; often the body language does the speaking.


SOLD

It might be a few days before another entry as I will be at a Napa Show.

"Island Wave", new 5x5 study, oil

"Isand Wave" is a new study in oil. This Hawaiian scene was used with a much larger painting. I have painted several "wave" paintings over the years and each one is always a challenge not to get to tight or romantic.
