Reid Park Plein Air 8x10 Oil


After nearly six months of having not been able to make it out to plein air, I finally made it out. Wasn't sure where to go but knew i had yet to do one at Reid Park. It was mothers day and there were lots of parties at the park, so many many people looking on. It was nice to be able to get out of the studio for a while and paint outdoors. I hope to make it out again next Sunday!

Anne Hathaway Portrait 6x8 Oil


Actress Anne Hathaway from the upcoming "Get Smart" movie best known from Princess Diaries movies. I felt she had a very photogenic face and and infectuous smile and needed to paint her. I enjoyed this very much and have decided to do another famous person portrait of either John Wayne or Matthew Mcchonahey.
