Nice work!  Looks as if you have been influenced by Hopper perhaps!  Good to see an art teacher creating own work!  Keep it up!

Thanks. Actually the photo is from the SPCA. This was the most mellow dog in there. Broke my heart shooting in there.

Thanks I like birds too. Where else can you get those rich vibrant
colors that are not man made. I just started another one I will be
posting in a day or two. That Blue Bunting will be give to my mother in
law for mother's day this year. She is a big bird watcher she is one of
the few to knew that bird that saw it.

Thank you for visiting my site and the comment.Realestate 2 was inspired by the yang of lava meeting the yin of ocean-realestate is born ;)

thanks for the comments about my landscapes, I am equally impressed with your work.

Some of your bright work, like Yellow on the Top, remind me of Wolf Kahn, except he usually uses secondary colors.  Do you know of him?  I think our paintings would work in a gallery, in that they share color and a level of abstraction/simplification.  I like how animals sneak into your work.  Greg

Keep playing with the scrathing technique. Do it while the paint is still wet and thickly applied. That's how I got the results I did. 

The portrait is new. The trees/shadows one I did a while ago but just posted it not too long ago. The portrait is quite an accomplishment for me. I didn't think I could do those but it came out so well I may look to do more (I did one other one eons ago and I didn't like it).

I've gotten away from abstracts with the portrait and my current project, a painting of Fenway Park. I'm looking forward to getting back to spontaneous painting after I get that one done. We'll see how things go...

I couldn't tell at all where you scratched off the paint in Barn I...
