16" x 20" Oil on Linen Panel

For some reason this little girl just spoke to me and I had to paint her.

Her story is relevant in so many countries today.  To view or purchase this

painting or any of my work, please click HERE  I'll be adding more paintings

soon.  I'm just a little behind!

Almost finshed!

 

I've been working on this portrait for the few days.  It's time to hide it for awhile

and look at it with fresh eyes on another day.  As always, one of my biggest

problems is getting a good photo.  I'm afraid my skills are really lacking in

that area.  Right now I'm going out to the patio to work on a 30" x 40"

still life.  I'm pretty excited about the still life.  It's larger than I

usually paint and if it turns out, it may be a new direction for me to experiment

with for awhile!
