This pastel painting is called “Family Outing.” It is a scene of a family enjoying a nice spring day at the Morton Arboretum. This painting has been accepted into the “Young in Art” show at the McCord Gallery in Palos Park, IL. It will be used in the promotional material for the show.

Right now I am working on paintings of Koi fish. I am experimenting with different approaches. This is a commissioned piece for a Christmas gift. I’ll post a picture of it when the client makes her choice.

I won the best of show award at the LaGrange gallery in their holiday show. I also sold my first miniature painting. This was a picture of an Oregon sunset approximately 3 x 2 in. Working that small was more time consuming than I thought but I liked the outcome.

I apologize for the lack of pictures in the galleries. I have had another computer snaffoo. I will have to put the photos back into the pages and this will take some time. I hope you are having a good holiday season. May God bless you and your family in 2009!
