Horrors!

Horrors because I had not realized how much time I let slip by without posting some of my latest work.  I promise to be more timely in the future.  Here are two of my latest succulents and I am pleased to show my first portraits.  It has been long overdue to venture into new subjects and I am delighted and enthused with my new subject matter.

This is "Keeping Baby Safe". I think the title says it all.  I just thought it was very touching.
This is "Elizabeth".  She was supposed to be one of my traditional succulents, but after laying her in on that stunning red background, nothing would do but that she remain displayed in those vivid colors.


This is "Salome".  She is 14 x 11 and my initial venture into the world of painting portraits and figures. Her photograph, as well as those following, is not professionally done -haven't made it to the photographer yet - so, please forgive the quality of it.


This is "Relaxing During the Game".  He is 10x8 and was more of a challenge that would seem apparent.


This is "Turban".  He is a combination of my new ventures into the world of portraiture as well as an experiment in background styles.  He is 24 x 12 and is gallery wrapped.
