My Bio
I paint in acrylics mostly. I am a reluctant artist in that I paint to scratch an itch all the while knowing it will not lead to any great thing. That said, I am a Christian, which gives a different meaning to my artwork - somehow I believe the effort will be eternal.
Trying to do current works in under an hour.

Haven't posted in a while. Lately, copying lots of old Western Artists (Remington, Russell, Thayer, Harvey Dunn, Harley Brown, Koerner, WH Dunton) . And have finalized my style up to this point, loose Impressionistic by freehand drawing with a pencil, then scumbling, painting highlights (darks and lights) then final messing up the painting with emotional strokes - "Don't be afraid to destroy your painting" someone said.

Going to Practice Drawing
0 min read
Well, I have so many hobbies I can't find time to do them all but I have been neglecting my drawing and painting so am committed to spending time drawing. I can copy other drawings to my satisfaction but I really need to work on real life drawings - in case I end up in the street busking. So will post new drawings now and then when I get an acceptable one drawn.
Rock on!

Have been building rc airplanes
0 min read
My interests drift around a lot. The last couple years I have gotten heavy into building and flying my own designs of epp foam rc airplanes - mostly flying wings cause I crash a lot and they are really resilient.
So my art has suffered - I haven't done much of anything until today when I started refurbishing my painting of Shirley. The one I have posted now looks nothing like her and I got so fed up I just quit painting for a year.
So now, I think I will come back and do some more portraits.
It really stinks when my most downloaded and viewed painting is one I painted from a Chinese art book.
