Fountain Park


This is Fountain Park in Franklin, PA. I took this picture back in August with my digital camera. Here is my son running up to the fountain. It was a beautiful warm day to play in the park. I can't wait til summer I'm so sick of all this cold weather. I have pictured here the beginning and ending stage of this painting.

I also wanted to share with you I have become a member of the Meadville Council on the Arts. There will be a Member Exhibit in which I sumitted two of my paintings for (Spooky Forest and Interior), Friday, February 1st until March 1st. The open reception will be on Friday, February 1st from 6:30pm to 9:00pm at the Heeschen Gallery in the Market House 2nd floor, Meadville, PA. This reception is free and open to the public with refreshments and musical entertainment. Feel free to stop by and visit with me and other artists. Hope to see you there!

Old White Mare


I used a loose style with this painting. Lately, I've been observing other painters and their techniques to help me improve. I hopefully will be attending a 7 week (one day a week for 7 weeks) painting course in February. It's been a good 16 years since the last painting class. This is something I'm really looking foward too. My paintings (I think) have improved since I first started back in July, and this painting course will help me work some of those kinks out.
