Ideas...

This is the final painting....or not. I am sometimes  unhappy with a finished painting. It's perfection  that I strive for knowing full well it is unattainable. This one I will leave alone for now as a work in progress.

This is the painting I created at first. I was somewhat satisfied with it and then decided to be reworked. You can see the revisions I made in the painting above this one.

Wonder..

I love to depict the many moods and expressions of children. Graphite pencil on paper.

I just love painting faces. No matter how deep you look into the eyes of this child, all you see is pure innocence. The eyes say it all.

The View Within'

This painting was a challenge. It was my first attempt at painting someone viewing art....three fold. I use acrylic paint throughout the whole process. I had a great deal of fun doing it.
