The Bride


Watercolor, 8" x 10". I mentioned I was working on portraits. Inspired by Karin Jurick's end of the year portrait challenge no doubt. This painting of myself on my wedding day is my latest attempt. Its hard painting yourself because Im not sure anyone has a firm grasp on how they really look, and Im not 100% satisfied with it. But again, it was time to stop fiddling with it for now.

    I think you have accomplished the goal of conveying a joyous feeling in your portrait. I, too, am working on portraiture and it's tough!! keep up the good work.

Mr Pelican!

A lot of stuff has happened since my last post, most notably that we bought a house! So mostly my painting has been confined to walls and other home related projects, like designing our new renovated kitchen. I did make time for several commissions as well as a new, larger work to serve as the anchor piece for our living room, and here he is, Mr. Pelican! He's 24 x 36" framed.
