Forgot to put up another one last night. Oops.
Anyway, this painting started out life as something else (bottom left), which I painted over. It has since been sold.

This painting was done on a monopoly board, so all the usual suspects are in there somewhere. I like the looks of it. I obviously really went to town-probably just splashing paint around in a daze, the absolute best state to paint in. It was sold a long time ago.
The name of this painting cracks me up. One of the few watercolors I’ve done, it was on paper, whereabouts currently unknown.
I’m actually working sporadically on a novel of the same name. Kind of a horror/supernatural version of Single White Female and based on actual experiences I had with a pyscho chick I once knew.
This painting was on a huge piece of cardboard and once again points out my lack of drawing ability. That thing in the lower left hand corner is supposed to be a brain. haha. I sold it (!!!) several years ago.
If I was a cow, I’d be pretty worried too. As you can see, this is a pretty goofy painting. Still have it-it’s huge, acrylic on paper bags on canvas.
This is a painting I like a lot. Never even tried to sell it and it’s hanging on the wall about ten feet away from me right now. I remember when I did it, I thought I was more proud of it than of anything I’d ever written. Not sure if I still feel that way, but I dig it nonetheless. It’s 15×30 on stretched canvas, if you care about that sort of thing.
I don’t remember anything about this painting, but I like the stark simplicity of it. Too bad the pic is kinda crappy.
Here’s today’s painting, called Frost on the Path. It sold and I remember being pretty surprised by how much it went for. It wasn’t very big and it was on cardboard. I’m including a detail shot with this one, just because I happen to have one. The title seems appropriate now, given how cold it’s been here in the PNW.
I recently found a disc with images of old paintings I’ve done. Some of them I still have somewhere. It’s funny how the fact that I literally cannot draw a straight line has never stopped me from trying. As always, I was just trying to concentrate on color.
For lack of any other news to write about, I’ll try and post one a day for a while and see how it goes.
I was kinda doodling with acrylics when I did this first one. It’s on a canvas panel and I still have it somewhere. It’s called E-8, but I don’t remember why that was significant at the time. I like the moon and the animal is okay. It’s probably close to ten years old.
Don’t worry. No plans to quit the day job. (Though some days I wouldn’t mind.)
