After the long fall.

Upper Sacramento River

Found twenty minutes to paint while passing though Dunsmuir on my way north to see the great American eclipse in Oregon. Forgot to bring ink so I’ll clean this up a bit later. Can’t complain, after six hours in the car with three boys just sitting by a river is bliss.

Sorry for the inconvenience folks, but our boys must take a brief break from their normal fun loving adventures to kick the snot out of the clan.

The Millionaire

At the old miners camp, the wild eyed mountain man is preparing a feast to celebrate his new found wealth.

A quick beach painting I made while my boys got ready for bed. Kids are jumping all over the place, time to eject. This is as far as I got.

Woman in a Hat Shop

Posted 2017/08/13

Went to the Legion of honor this weekend to check out the Degas, Impressionism, and the Paris Millinery Trade Show. The show was great but then again I’m biased, I’m a sucker for impressionist paintings, hat and pretty girls and this show had all three. I was inspired to sit down and paint a little in ArtRage this morning, so here you go.

Lake Sketch

Made this lake doodle to test ArtRage on my new iMac. So much faster and responsive that my old powerbook. Very happy with the graphic improvements. Can’t wait to try it out on something more substantial.
