Apples and Oranges

It's not all about apples and oranges. I have some coyote skulls around here somewhere. This painting is a few years old and it's never been shown before. A world premier right here! It's an 8 x 10 inch oil on panel.

More Green Apples

This still life of a similar subject was painted in 2008. The blue background provides a good contrast to the green apples. I don't remember the squirrels bothering with them until this year. One of our neighbors, who used to feed the birds and probably the squirrels, moved away, so now they are turning to me. If I catch em, they will be painted.

Green Apples and Leaves

This is a recent painting of some green apples and leaves that came from a tree in the backyard. In spite of the lack of rain, this was the best apple yield in five years for this tree. Once the squirrels figured it all out, the apples were doomed.

Still Life with Sunflowers

Time to get back to some painting. This is a painting of some dying sunflowers sitting in my grandparents old honey jar. I started it about 5 years ago but it remained unfinished. I decided to revisit the painting and lighten the background which was a big improvement. A few more touch ups and my signature and it will be done. Click image to enlarge.

Wrecked Car Drawing

Who hasn't done this before? There's a body shop nearby that has a rotating exhibition of wrecked cars out front. This Saturn showed up a few months ago. You wonder about the people involved. I hope everybody's OK by now.

Drawing in Progress

Here's a partial view of one of my latest drawings. The inspiration for this drawing came from a stereoscopic image of WWI soldiers titled, "Now Bring on Your Gas". Anyone who owns a dog would appreciate this image.
