Backlit Drama


I painted this nude oil painting alla prima in last Tuesday's live modeling session with friends.   I really love painting nude female back poses with strong lighting.  The draped cloth added to the drama.  This 12" x 9" oil is for sale, please inquire about availability.

Kids being kids: at the beach

Age of Innocence (sold)

Oh Brother! (sold)

California Dream'n (sold)
All three of these children playing at the beach paintings are pastels.  I wanted to capture not just the serenity of the beach but the playfulness that kids bring out in it.  I enjoy painting things that make me feel good and take me back to places I'd like to be.
