Hi Selliot!! Thank you for visiting my page. You asked about my Magueyes they are acrylic. I work mostly watercolor and acrylic, sometimes pastel. Your tree pieces most of all the Concerned mother, are incredible. You can't imagine how a huge tree fan I am!!!  When my daughter asked me: Mom what animal you would wanna be? she freaked out when I told her: I want to be a tree! she doesn't understand why! Trees are what makes my life on this planet worthliving, do you Know the Ceiba tree? tree of the mayan culture? If not I will tell you about it. See you....

thank you for the comments on "the barn" it is done with oils in a wet-on-wet technique. I prepared the canvas by crackling it first. Thats what give the picture it unique look. It was really fun to do. I learned to paint thru the Bob Ross organization but I do my own thing. I now do encaustic, too

Thanks again

Hello Selliot.. thanks for visiting.  I used a photo on this one. Set this painting aside for a long time... I couldn't get re-inspired to finish it... but all of a sudden...it was back on the easel.  My last name means "Ram"... I guess thts why I like them  ...  Thanks Again...     I love the 'tall' tree, with the hug...  It's a greatttt one.

Hi Selliot,  a few days ago while I was on this site I saw your drawings and left you a comment ...I loved your trees.  then this weekend I was just out hiking and I saw this tree that reminded me of your work...I was so excited so I looked up and took a photo of the one you recently left a comment on...So yes it's a photo inspired by you...... synchronicity here...  I used neon glow in photoshops which added some of the color affects.
