This is a 12 x 16 landscape. I think that I used the same reference photo on the painting I posted on May 14 but I am not sure about this as I have dozens of landscape photos and a lot of them do look alike! In any event, it is a separate painting.

An iconic figure going through a doorway and descending down steps…..what was I thinking??

This study is 12 x 16.


I have always loved dogs, and have had dogs as long as I can remember. All my dogs (except for one) have come from the Humane Society or animal shelter. One of our neighbors owned two bloodhounds. The reference for the collie was a photograph.

Randolph County is in east Arkansas. Very rural! This landscape is 12 x 16.

Maynard, Arkansas is a very small rural town in east Arkansas. I took a photograph of a building there about 15 years ago and used it as a reference for this painting. It is small, about 9 x 12.

This is a small 8 x10 painting.

There are three main sections in this 20 x 24 painting–a shadow in the foreground, then a white area, and finally a darker section where the house is located. Three areas in a picture help to establish distance.

Somehow I like to paint old houses and rural scenes! This painting is 18 x 24.
