Recently I have been on an abstract tear. I really enjoy the freedom of experesson when in the zone doing an abstract painting, this one is a watercolor, if I recall a half sheet which means it is about 15 inches by 22 inches.
Fyi: I made the error of not taking a photo of the painting before having it framed, which is a problem trying not to get a glare, same problem for oil paintings which have been varnished.
In the zone
Working Together 4 X 5 oil
Several years back, actually longer then I wish to dwell on, I took photograph’s of a horse logging operation as my work entailed doing photography and video. The horse logging was used to demonstrate low impact on the forest as they selectively logged trees and the horses were believed to have less impact on the forest environment compared to heavy equipment.
Since my blog is supposed to be about my art, I thought I would start with a painting I finished several years ago. I was inspired to paint Seabiscuit from the famous 1938 photograph by Jack Shipply…link: (Google Jack Shipply Seabiscuit) what is interesting to me is the original photograph only measures 8 inches by 10 inches, while my painting is 24 x 30, on panel, mixed media. One other thing I did not know… because I did not see the movie… Seabiscuit’s mask color is supposed to be red. Sold this one. 
In the wee hours of the morning, I hear the Coyotes making such a fuss
Yapping, Yelling, and screaming, carrying on like there is no us
They do not care who they wake, as long as they get to keep what they take
Like people getting what they want, yapping Yelling and screaming and they continue to taunt
All over the place they are, I hear them up close and off quite far
One would ask how could they have gone on as they seem
When all they do is keep yapping, yelling and yes… even scream
Barking yapping and even crying
