Old Painting
December 18, 2017
Going through my garage looking for Halloween-appropriate art, I came across this rather large (for me) oil on linen.
They are, clockwise, starting from the horse, a horse (maybe a mule–no way to tell without the lower jaw), a gorilla (sadly, plaster, the only fake item in my collection; I woud kill for a real gorilla skull), human (I have the rest of the skeleton in the garage), baboon, cheetah (I’m definitely not supposed to have that; I could tell you how I got it, but then I’d have to kill you), klipspringer (a small antelope), and a daffodil to take the edge off.
Portraits, Etc.
September 10, 2015
Just a few recent portraits to show you. I’ve been working on a follow-up to the Panhandlers of Harvard Square project, but until then here are the results of the few portrait opportunities that have come my way. I’m also throwing in a couple of odd paintings that don’t really fit in an of the other categories–I guess I could have included the Pitcher Plant painting with the flower paintings–before I set up for the grand finale.
Annabelle
A co-worker of my wife who wanted her portrait done. I’m happy with the results.
Chris
A model at Kate Huntington’s Monday night portrait session in Providence.
Eugene
Another Monday night model.
Sunday Morning
Had some friends over Saturday night and this is what the back porch looked like the next day.
Greta
I was actually setting up a little flower painting when Greta decided she needed her portrait done.You can see the vase in the background.
Pitcher Plant
My wife’s hanging plant turned out to be almost frighteningly vigorous.
