Traditional Art

The pieces below represent a sampling of my traditional work. The term "traditional" refers to traditional media, as opposed to digital art. It includes oil painting, acrylic painting, watercolour painting, pencils, pen and ink, and pretty much anything that isn't done with a tablet or a mouse.

 

 

  • Father and Son
    Father and son enjoy their time together reading. An 18" x 24" original, painted in acrylic.
  • Gone Fishing
    This is a sample of my pencil work. Working with pencil is one of my favorite things. Sometimes my pencil art is done as a piece in itself, and other times the pencil art is preliminary to a painting or something else yet to come.
  • The Sunday Drive
    Another example of my pencil work.
  • The Grasshopper
    A monochromatic gray acrylic painting of one of my favorite insects. I had a little fun with the title lettering too.
  • Lance Henriksen Caricature
    A caricature of an all-time favorite actor, Lance Henriksen, painted in acrylic.
  • More Extreme Lance Henriksen Caricature
    Another caricature of Lance Henriksen, this time a little more extreme. Painted in acrylic.
  • Tea Time
    It’s tea time, and the tea is steeping on the kitchen counter, its aroma wafting through the air, inviting us in. Painted in acrylic.
