December Days

I just finished 31 days of December.  It was a lot of fun.  I used a 5x5 hand book sketchbook. One of my favorites. I had a list on World of Watercolor on Face Book.  I used ink, watercolor, gouache and even some Casein.  Gold ink as well as black.
It was fun.  There are a few that I didn't get done. It is hard to get one done each day.  I sketch at night, so sometimes it would be 11:00 before I was finishing.

Christmas Commissions

These are two commissions I had for this Christmas.
 I am not crazy about commissions because we all see things differently.

John

This is a portrait of  an artist I met in 2013.  He is an awesome artist, and sculptor.  He has done some famous scuptors of marines.  Unfortunately his beautiful son was killed while in the Marines.
It is a 12 x12 on  stretched canvas.

Kirklands Stores

I found out that one of my small paintings will be reproduced and sold in the Kirklands Stores.
I am sure it will be enlarged quite a bit from the original size. I hope the store in Lubbock, TX carries it, so I can see it!
If you are in one of the stores be sure and look for it! It may even be available online.

Sketch turned into Christmas Card

I did a boot sketch and the owner of the boots liked the sketch and said just throw some lights or something and make a card with it. So thanks to Gouache i could do that. It turned out cute for a western Christmas card.  The Tag will have Merry Christmas on it.

They have a cute dog, named Fuzz, and he will be on the inside with the verse.



Lubbock Arts Festival

  The West Texas watercolor society always paints small works to sell.  This is a wonderful art get together. It is coming up in April.  thi...
