Ah, it feels good to do a little daily painting again! And of one of my tools, no less- I can't believe how long it's been since I've painted this wrench!

The Call of the Sea

My little cousin Anna, as a mermaid or a naiad or something.... something just crawled forth from the ocean, and thinking about going back. I know I am too!

I've learned that it is best not to ask too many questions. Especially when a sheep-chicken comes strutting into the studio on stilts, demanding to be painted.

Put Together

My brain is being difficult lately. It insisted on randomly painting these pieces-of-horses dailies out of the blue, and now it still won't let me get back to the stuff I was working on before....

Trying to figure out the mechanics of making a thing glow. And of course, fish always making for a fun subject for experimentation.

A Marble in a Teacup II

5"x7"

Sometimes I like to paint something more than once, to figure out what composition looks better. And sometimes that just leaves me wanting to paint it a few more times!

Unearthly Child

8"x16"

I should rework paintings more often- the strangest, most interesting things happen. Like this, for instance. She's like a tiny patron saint for the zombie movement.
