Peabody Construction

9" x 12" watercolor and ink on 140lb. Fabriano paper

This was done from an on-site pencil sketch at a local construction site.

The tractor/digger looked rather lonely among the brush, but

made for a nice contrast vs. the natural setting.

Beached

5" x 7" watercolor on 90lb. Fabriano CP

Another quick sketch of a warm beach scene. Enjoy!

Quicky Floral

7" x 5" watercolor on 90lb. Fabriano paper

Just a fast, loose sketch of some flowers in a blue pot/vase.

I'm hoping to make larger paintings from these small studies -

somewhere down the road.

Backlit Trees

5" x 7" watercolor in Moleskine sketch book

A fall painting of some trees backlit by late afternoon sunshine.

Office Window View (Las Colinas)

5" x 8" watercolor in Moleskine watercolor sketchbook

This is the view I see daily when looking out the window at

work. Looking into the sun (East) toward downtown

Las Colinas and Dallas, TX.

Paper Stand

22" x 15" watercolor on 300lb. Arches

A park-side view of a lake with a city in the distance. Please forgive the poor perspective on the foreground newspaper stand. I see I was off by a good bit. Oh well, practice makes perfect (so THEY say!)

Thanks for looking.

Randolph Barn

11" x 17" watercolor on 90lb. sketching paper

Just a quick rendition of a nearby barn on some farm land.

It's still 90+ degrees here in TX - waiting for some Fall type weather!

Aqueduct

20" x 30" oil on Yupo paper

An abstract view of an old Roman aqueduct. Yupo paper is a slick-surfaced paper

that can take all media. I've used it before for watercolor and acrylic, now I wanted to

try it with oils. Most of this was done by applying thin layers of paint via the knife.

Morning Stroll

15" x 22" watercolor on 300lb. Arches

An early morning walk with the trusty canine. This is the

first painting on 300lb. paper in a long time. I'm also getting

a bit more brave and working up to more full-size sheets.
