Stairway To Heaven


Would you believe I finally finished this painting that I started at the Bisbee, Arizona Plein-Air Art Show way back when?! (see previous post). It is a 14" x 11" original oil. No, I haven't been lazy. This is numberous art shows and many paintings later. Whew!

Time Flies!


Those of you whose lives are always full know what I mean when I say time flies. I can't believe I haven't posted for a while. Retirement is full, rich, and exciting. Besides my participation in the Sonoran Desert Museum Show with three entries, (this one painted on site), I am preparing for two more coming this week. Stay toned. This oil on quality canvas board, "The Geometry of Art", measures 11" x 14".

Tubac Plien-Air


Traveled to Tubac yesterday to "paint the town" and the painting ended up being accepted into the art show. I was a happy camper.

Finished Painting


This measures 11" x 14" on quality canvas board. My values had to be tweeked a little back in the studio.

Honeybee Canyon


Finally! The weather is cooling down some so that my friends and I can go out painting this beautiful state. See finished product next!

BISBEE ART SHOW


Well, I'm back from the Bisbee, Arizona, Plein-Air Art Festival. Wow, those hills and thousands of stairs to resident's homes were unbelievable! One of the contests was to paint one of them that lead from the bottom of a hill to what seemed like miles up to heaven. Stay tuned to the results; as soon as I catch my breath, that is!
