Article about me

This July 2014 Celebrate Bluffton magazine ran an article about me and my artistic endeavors. It is pretty cool and I am being more active in marketing myself this my fiftieth year. I want to thank everyone for your support and praises and I thank God for this talent he has graced me with.

Seascape Scene

I did this seascape scene in acrylics. It was a demo/class for Michael's. I was recently certified to be an art instructor there. Pretty amazing. It is on 9x12 canvas panel.

Apple Drawing

This is a charcoal drawing of an apple. It was a great exercise. It was done on brown paper 9x12. I need to do more of these.

Spanish Dancer 2

This is another version of Spanish dancer. It was done in watercolour this time. 9x12 140lb paper.
I like this version better.

Charcoal Portrait

This is the latest charcoal sketch I did on gray paper, its 18x24.

I did it for the competition at the Portrait Society of America.

A friend of mine gave me some charcoal she wanted me to try.

Works great. 

Bird Dog

I found this painting I did in 2000. It was in pastel; format is 9x12 on yellow paper.

I had misplaced it; it's a bird dog. I got the reference out of a magazine. It still looks pretty good.

Spanish Dancer

I just completed this painting in oils called Plena dancer. It's 

size is 18X24 and it depicts a Puertorican Plena dancer. 

National Art Award 1st Place

The pastor of my Church suggested I submit a painting to the Church

of God Senior juried art competition which was held in Mauldin, South Carolina. 

So I did, and what a surprise was it to hear I won 1st place at the 

State level. What a blessing. This is a painting of a Great Heron

It is an oil on canvas 18"X 24".

Happy Birthday!!

This is a self portrait I did to commemorate my 50th birthday. It was done in charcoal (of course) 9x12.
