bird

Hey Art Barn! Here's a watercolor of a bird. Woo! Hope you're all having a pleasant holiday and definitely let me know if any of you are around Boston so we can hang out!

Hello Arts Barn.
Hoping I'll be able to post more work. Don't have many pictures with me at the moment- this one happened to be in my email. Its a picture of one of the drawings from my show- post framing by my dear Gram.

More Trees

Qi

12"x16"

Ballpoint on paper

This is the commissioned tree, and as a result I didn't take as much risk as I would have otherwise...so, there'll be more to come.  Any suggestions on where to take it?

Growth

2" x 2.25"

Ballpoint on paper

Small moment.  It had a profound effect when matted.  I think I want to do a small series like this in the future.

More Toys!

Hey guys! these are four oil paintings that i finished for this group show my shop had at this little gallery down the street for the month of January. They're all oil paint with a thick glaze on plywood cut down (thanks hampshire woodshop!) and sanded smooth and they're about the size of a normal human hand or so. really fun to sort of take stuff from div iii and push it further and into a new direction (as i can see with the other posts on here too). take care!

(it's a commission that's already been sent off, but I'd still love feedback for future drawings)

Here are sketches I came up with for an oak tree commission, but I also am interested in this subject as a direction for my work, so I'd love any and all constructive criticism:

Back in the Art Barn

It's been a while since we've been able to talk and see each other's work, so Amber and I thought of starting a blog.  We can use this space to post images of our art and give feedback, or just talk and rant about anything.  So what's everyone been up to?
