Let me introduce myself. . .
As a new “blogger”, I would love to share some of my works of art. My medium of choice is oils and I paint all subjects but I specialize in figurative and portraits. Your comments are welcome!
This is a profile that I did, I think the lavenders in the background compliment her–9×12.

This young man looks so grown up in his jacket–12×16. I wanted an old world feel for this painting.
