NICHOLAS SIMMONS

A friend told me about an artist named Nicholas Simmons who does fantastic water medium paintings. He is called "The Bad Boy of Watercolor" and when you see his unconventional and innovative art you can understand why.

TERI AGAIN

Quite a while ago I had done a linocut of my wife Teri. It was not a great success. She, along with anyone who looked at it didn't see a resemblance. This last week I did a mixed media (Acrylic, pastels and acrylic inks) of her with better results. SHE LIKES IT!

MISTAKES

ANNIVERSARY

Forty three years of marriage today. I guess we might be serious about this.

MIXED MEDIA

A friend sent me a link (below) to a Youtube video that I really enjoyed. Kathy Arbour creates a mixed media painting that had me thinking "not very good" when she starts, then had me saying "wow" at the finish.
