Some Artwork

This painting is called Santa and His Friends. I painted this a couple of years ago and I hang it above my fireplace every Christmas.


This is a painting of a friend's dulcimer.


This is a fun watercolor I did awhile back.


This is one of my favorite pieces. I did this in a life drawing class. It's a Chuck Close technique where we used stamp pad ink and our thumbs to create a portrait. The portrait came from a picture I found in a magazine. You can see the little squares I drew on the paper before I started the portrait. I have left them on the paper because I want to make another one similar to this.


And, finally, this is also one of my favorite pieces. This is a painting of my cousin's dog. I really had fun with this one.
