Izzy

The third of 9. This is a monochromatic painting that I was attempting to get a little looser with my approach, and allowing or creating waterspots. This approach is a result of influence from James Kirk. I am pleased with how it turned-out. Perminantly mounted on frame and waxed.

This is the second of 9 grandchildren that I plan to paint. Done with the same method as the others, on hot-press paper. This painting was not monochromatic however. I was pleased with the smile.

This is the first of nine of my grandchildren that I am painting. This is a monochromatic painting on hot-press Arches paper. I built a 16"x20" wooden frame with a plywood surface, and stretched the paper perminantly on the frame. Then did to painting and waxed it with Dorlands Wax medium so that it is mounted without glass.
