THE "HEADS" SHOW

2012-02-02T21:41:00.000-08:00

This is my latest piece for the upcoming Art Guild of Pacifica show entitled "Heads". The oil painting is 20" x 16" on canvas.

There are so many heads to consider: dead heads of the Grateful or flower types, talking heads, heads of state, garlic, lettuce, celery, hair and nails. There are black heads, heads of households, heads of Easter Island. I chose to do a head of my sweet, and expressive gray kitty-girl, Smokey...ala Jefferson Airplane Feed Your Head?

I am currently finishing a painting for the upcoming "Heads" show through the Art Guild of Pacifica.

2012 New Work: Containment

2012-01-04T16:54:00.000-08:00

This is a photo montage on canvas that is 48"h x 30w" that will be shown in the "Something Edgy" show opening at the Sanchez Art Center on January 13, 2012. At the moment the piece is untitled. I'm still thinking of a name.

After several good ideas of names for this piece including "Something Ajar" "In Case of Edginess, Break Glass" Flowering Inferno" Twist of Fate" and "Don't Extinguish the Fire Within" from friends, I decided to call this "Containment Fire Within".

Peru Series #8

2011-06-06T19:07:00.000-07:00

This is a 6" x 6" oil painting on a panel of a Quechua boy sitting on a dog near the train station. I was testing painting directly on a wood panel for the first time. I was also experimenting by adding cold wax to my paint, and I am happy with the results. I am testing methods in preparation for beginning the 50 paintings in 50 days project, so there will be lots of work posted in the near future.

Above: a work in progress

This painting, the third in my Peru series, has been on my mind for awhile. After finishing "Swift Flight" yesterday, I decided to rework "The Cocha" with a new method I am exploring. The bottom photo shows the original version that is too pristine. "The Cocha" is evolving into something different.

The last couple days I have been working on this new painting about transformation and flight. It is a 24" x 18" canvas in oils. I have completed it and updated the image. Shortly after publishing the prior version, I could see just what I needed to do to complete it, and I have titled the painting "Swift Flight".

Weekend Warrior Workshop

2011-02-07T13:14:00.000-08:00

I arrived in Crockett on Friday afternoon for Randall Sexton's Weekend Warrior Figure Painting Workshop on February 5 – 6. I had fun taking photos in this old "sugar" and "oil" town that is home to the C&H sugar processing plant, and is adjacent to the oil refineries in Rodeo at the base of the Carquinez Bridge. It is scenic to say the least!

The Workshop at was held at Randall Sexton's studio. Randy is an accomplished painter and a great teacher. I took this workshop since I had not done any work from models since college in the mid '70's, so my focus was process and practice rather than product. It was great to get back into working from the human model.

Our first model was a lovely male with beautiful angles. He moved his body like a dancer, and his arms were like wings. His poses were inspired.

We began the first day with quick 10 minute poses that we wiped off our boards for practice. We continued with 20 minute poses through the morning. I think the painting below is my favorite painting.

After lunch we had a female model who beautiful features and stunning skin tones who was a completely new form to learn through paint. The first painting below does not begin to do her justice.

These 40 minute poses allowed more time to do better drawing and get better color.

Our second day began with new model we worked with all day. She started with one 20 minute pose, below.
I struggled to master her interesting face on the painting below that was the remainder of the morning.

After lunch we did a second long pose with the clothed model. I did a better job capturing her likeness here.

All 13 participants in the workshop had a terrific time honing their skills, and getting to know each other in Randy's bright studio with terrific tunes during that Superbowl Sunday that reached 74 degrees! I look forward to attending workshops with Randy in the future.

The Cocha

2011-01-16T17:57:00.000-08:00

This is the third of my Peru series. I have very fond memories of the time along the waterways near and on the Amazon. This is a 20" x 16" canvas. Fishing is a primary source of food for families who live along the banks.

Perro en Plaza de Armas

2011-01-16T16:47:00.000-08:00

Today I finished "Perro en Plaza de Armas", the second of my Peru series. This is a 20" x 16" painting. This quiet plaza seems to have been considerably changed by recent tourism.

Experimental

2011-01-11T20:38:00.001-08:00

I began this 20" x 16" painting a few days ago and it started getting too tight. Today I decided to experiment and took my palette knife to the painting to loosen it up and give more feeling of the old plaza in Peru in 1989 called Plaza de Armas in Agua Caliente below Machu Picchu. I was surprised to find more recent photos of this place and discovered it to be quite changed by tourism.

New Year Jump Start

2011-01-01T20:59:00.001-08:00

In 1987 I took a trip to Peru that left vivid visual memories. I decided to paint this inspired from a journey to this harsh habit in the high Andes, above the tree line to see the birds that lived there. The air was very thin and walking was exhausting. The painting is a 12" x 16" canvas. I will probably add a couple bits of color highlights to this before I call it finished.

Real or Imagined?

2010-12-29T18:00:00.000-08:00

This is my last painting for 2010. It is a portrait of myself and my parrot, Calina. She is a 30-something parrot whom I've had for 35 years. If this dries quickly enough, I plan to show it at Sanchez Art Center in the first Art Guild Pacifica Show in January. This painting is 12" x 16" on canvasboard.

A month later . . . Discovering Persimmon

2010-11-29T18:27:00.001-08:00

I have finished this 20" x 16" painting I began last month and am pleased with the vibrancy of color I achieved. All it needs is a final coat of less glossy varnish, then a better photo. I have new resolve to paint more frequently and keep my momentum going through the new year.

Finally back to the easel

2010-10-29T17:48:00.001-07:00

I've had a couple months of reflection and lots of visual input from going to art exhibits, and sensory input from going to farmer's markets. The changing weather and season is also providing great smells and sensations that is inspiring me.

I'm working on this still life from a scene in my kitchen. I'm really having fun with this one that I feel is off to a good start.

Finishing Loose Ends

2010-09-08T18:49:00.001-07:00

Today I finished this painting I last worked on before the beginning of the 50 paintings in 50 days project. Compared to my previous 6 inch square panels, this 24" x 36" canvas is huge! This was painted by request.

Walking Stick

6" x 6" oil on canvas panel

I was thrilled seeing these amazing insects for the first time in Texas near the Gulf. In Texas, everything is big including walking sticks at 6"-8" long! Walking sticks can blend into their surroundings making them very difficult to see. Nature in camouflage was my favorite page in the encyclopedia as a child.
