Lennox and Vivian

NOT AVAILABLE

Finished this painting of my nephew Lennox and his mom (my Sister Vivian) a couple years ago. I've been meaning to give it to my sister and nephew, however I keep thinking I want to display it somewhere prior to handing it over to them.

AVAILABLE

These are a couple of paintings I did about 5 or 6 years ago.  Both are done in oil and I still have them in my possession.  I need to get frames for them so I can hang them.  They both have classical renaissance elements in them.  I'll leave that to the viewer to spot them.

Here is an Alkyd Oil Painting I did of myself a couple years ago.

Bozidar

NOT AVAILABLE

Here are a couple paintings I've done of my good friend Bozidar.  The first one was done about 5 years ago and was a learning experience as it was one of the first portraits in oil I had attempted.  The painting to the right was another learning experience.  I went into this painting with an intention to paint in a much looser style.

Here is a painting of my parents. I am so happy that I finally was able to complete this after 2 years of working on it off and on. I presented it to them when i went to visit them on my vacation this past summer.

Welcome to my blog.  I will be posting updates to my paintings as time permits.  In the meantime I will post some of my past paintings.
