It's been so long since I've posted anything. Wow! School's out and I'm busier than ever with kids going every which way and me trying to paint in between. I have had several commissioned jobs and for that I'm very thankful. I've actually been busier the past few months than I've ever been. I hope that means I'll be even busier once the economy improves. For now I have two paintings to post. One is a 24"x30" commission of a barn. The client grew up with this barn and now it will be torn down. He wanted a painting to remember it by. This one was very difficult because the photo the client gave me wasn't a good reference photo. I decided to make the trip out to the barn about an hour away and take my own photos. I got several good ones but we had just had a terrible ice storm that took down many of the trees. I had to use my imagination for a lot of this painting which I never like to do. The other painting that I'm posting is just a still life of a pear. I love the simplicity. I want to do a very large painting of this soon.
