International Artist Magazine article

I'm pleased to report that an article on my work will appear in the International Artist Magazine in their Oct./Nov. 2016 edition.  See the cover above along with the first page of the article.

Two Guys and Three Beers

        Latest painting, oil, 18" X 30"

First finished painting in which I've included both faces and hands.

New focus on the portrait

    The self portraits above and below, neither of which is completely finished (and which I may never finish), are a result of some recent additional studies with Jeff Hein (Hein Academy, Salt Lake City) with a focus on the portrait.
    Self portraits are a great way to practice but can be boring, so I decided to try doing portraits with off-beat expressions, for the fun of it.  These two are the result, so far.
