The Three Amigos??


This title just popped into my head as I was uploading the image to my blog. Sounds good to me at the moment but I might wake up tomorrow thinking differently. Oh well, I have plenty of time to think of something else, should I change my mind.
This sitting lasted about 2 hours...gosh I am slow tonight...must be getting rusty from my 2 week absence due to my trip.

I'll soon be posting some photography of interesting subjects that will become my future painting or drawing projects...all of which were taken during my trip to the US.

Recognize the middle dog on the artwork?

In this photo taken at the Pentagon, I am seen with Officer P. Sherman and his dog K-9 Kira along with the framed artwork that was presented to Mr. Steven E. Calvery, Director of the US Pentagon Force Protection Agency. Special thank you to Officer Sherman for arranging the meeting and photography.

New Graphite pencil drawing of horses


I needed another pencil drawing to bring along to work on during "wait" times. Since working with graphite requires minimal equipment, it is perfectly suited for my grab-and-go sittings.

I'll be leaving for 3 weeks for a well deserved trip across the Eastern US with our final destination being Fl. An exciting stop along the way will be at the US Pentagon to meet and visit with one of my clients and his K9 partner Kira. Many of you will remember the US Pentagon portrait with the police k9's I worked on last winter...it is not often that I get to meet my online clients so this will be a nice surprise for all of us.

See you all soon and keep on painting!
