Have a strained rotater cuff right now. Can't really paint unless small back to sketching for a bit. Nothing like the feel of a pencil. It's a beautiful feeling.

Here it is more or less complete. My friend Maryl gave it the title of Windows. It's odd how some paintings are just done and others never seem to be finished.



The beginning of "Windows". This painting is about 2.5' by 4 feet. I use water based oil painting. I usually have a vague idea of what I will paint. Sometimes it's an idea of imagery or a feeling that has to come out. The second shot here is detail and the last is how it more or less finished up.

Process

I like the idea of process. Seeing the changes a painting goes through from start and (hopefully) finish. I will be adding some older painting processes and eventually come to my current paintings.

Group of some of my paintings from a few years ago.
