Charlies Ties, revisited and gifted

Spent the day going through old works..I did this one in 2008 or 09. I splashed lots of color in background today..I think it helped. Gee, I like color....

farm & pears---- wedding gift

Well, I loved my first "pears with background buildings"..thought I'd do it again..acrylic on wrapped canvas.  Great use of the warm/cool concept, don't ya know..

"people I may know"

I sketched this yesterday @ our art gathering..from random photos I've kept thru the years..aren't they cute??

Neighborhood Watch, 1969 SOLD in pekin 2015

I loved painting this...Mike,Mark H, Wade and Alan G. posing for a photo before the big "battle"..wearing their Dad's military hats. This is my favorite type of subject matter in the whole world..

our yard, last summer Gifted to Carol Olson....

I painted this acrylic from a photo I took of a plant Carl got while he was hospitalized. He loved gardening, raising flowers, tomatoes and horseradish mostly.  We spent most of his last summer on this patio, in our yard..I am sad....
