Limited Edition Print: Crows on Watch

Wednesday, August 15th, 2007

Sunday, August 5th, 2007

Here I am working on a new painting. Actually, it’s the initial stage of a new painting; the blank piece of paper stage. Of course I’m not actually there at the moment: I’m away in preparation for beginning. I guess this should really be called the procrastination stage!

Red-winged Blackbird Painting

Sunday, July 22nd, 2007

This painting of a red-winged blackbird is presently up for auction on ebay. The image is also featured on a T shirt in my giftshop.
