A video posting... Introducing my current painting [Ginter Mausoleum]

New painting on the easel this morning.... The Ginter Mausoleum in Hollywood Cemetery in Richmond, Virginia and yes it’s another mourning dove. Canvas toned

Okay so my last posting was a bit premature in thinking that I was finished with being “under the weather” but hopefully (knocking on wood) I am through with the whole being sick thing and can now be back at my easel for the duration! Today is my first full day back and I started painting the second layer of color on my painting “Ramsey’s Porch.” The background is finished and the railing is almost there as well. I hope to have the whole painting completed by tomorrow afternoon except for the mourning dove, which I will save until Monday!

Work in Progress... "Ramsey's Porch" Oil painting - Adding color, layer one.

Once again I thoroughly enjoyed traveling out to Tulsa, Oklahoma visiting with my fellow artist, friends, collectors, and art enthusiast! It was an extremely busy week, first with a LIVE painting demonstration at Lovetts Gallery and then exhibiting at the 2010 Natureworks Wildlife art show & Sale. The Lovetts Gallery Live painting demonstration was a great success with visitors in the gallery and people tuning in on the internet on “Over the Artists shoulder” my Ustream channel . Thank you to Jack and Waylon of Lovetts gallery for giving me the opportunity to paint at the gallery. I enjoyed answering all the questions of people in the gallery and from around the world on the internet. This was the first time that I have done a live broadcast and honestly was a bit nervous about it but overall I believe that it was a great success and look forward to doing it again. Jack and Waylon, you have a beautiful gallery, again thank you for that opportunity! Set-up for Live paint...
