Mirage Man

May 20, 2008

This is a huge departure for me…I have never painted the human form and although I like the idea, I’m not totally thrilled with the results….yet. I am also having a hard time photographing my particular style of painting. The blended brushstrokes loose their texture in the photo and in person, they reflect light differently. There is more depth and detail.

Ann Revisited

Another attempt at revisiting my Grandmother Ann Mittleman’s style of painting. Her painting is similiar and my inspiration on a daily basis.

Subtle River

May 8, 2008

Another subtle river flowing thru a color blended landscape. Sadly this photo does not translate the detail on the horizon to the soft blending in the foreground. In reality, the opposite would occur.

This is my fourth painting in four days. The output from my new space has drastically increased. Now I need more canvases and material for framing.
