  • Re: Cracked paint

    wmmccoy, wmmccoy, Thank you many times over for looking at the painting in question and giving me some solid advice on how to fix it. I've just been watching the cracks get worse these past few years (they weren't noticeable at all for the first 20 or so) and wondering what to do about them....

  • Recent Marine paintings in oils.

    I've been on a roll lately with marine paintings. I started doing one specific painting, which somehow led to several others, I guess when you are in the frame of mind to do something you have to just do it no matter what else needs your attention. Well that's my excuse and I'm sticking to...

  • Just Finished

    I painted this from a photograph a friend posted online. I took a photo after each painting session, around 1-3 hours each.

For example, does the artist prefer to paint wet-into-wet, paint thick, paint thin, paint fat over lean, are they...

  • Artistic Worldviews: A Plea For All Artists to Portray Truth, Goodness, and Beauty

    As a young boy, I was ahead of other children in my artistic abilities. I paid a special attention to detail, and I understdood more advanced artistic methods and techniques such as foreshorting, implimenting more or less detail where attention is needed, and various types of shading. I thought I was...

  • Plein Air, one hour quick study.

    Had another chance to get out today, although it was cloudy and kinda dull. At least the fog cleared by the time we got started. I worked on this for about an hour before it started to turn to mud, so I stopped and did two others that aren't worthy of showing. We're going back to this location...

  • Re: What are you working on this month? (Portraiture)

    Hi Dana, Thanks for your comments. Sounds like you're already familiar with my work. Where did you see my other paintings? I am thinking of developing some online courses. Does that sound appealing? There would be video instruction and demos, students would upload work-in-progress at the end of each...
