This "Winter Afternoon" is actually

a monotype. It was so ghost-like,

going into it with pencil really drew it out.

I like this square little oil. After looking at 

Contemporary Russian artists,

my "style" was affected quite positively, I 

think.

After an afternoon working with Al, this a page 

of him and his various "parts". Sold to someone 

who is in Hokomi Therapy.

When I ask artist friends for advice on

painting..they tell me to paint like I draw!

I wish it were that simple a solution for

me. Not having ever taken a an oil painting 

class (it is time to!)...I am experimenting and 

these are the results. 

Just trying to find my way.

Kelsey wrapped in a sheet. 

This reminded me of a Nautilus.

This is from the same afternoon as the oil

sketches. Chuck was able to come for a couple hours.

He is so patient and engaging. We have great 

conversations while we work.
