Hello,

Today is the first day of my blog entries. Currently I am working on some paintings and drawings in my studio.

My current painting, "Bareback at Sunset at Coast Stables" is almost completed. It is approximately 20x24 and features a young girl riding a horse bareback at sunset. My titles are more descriptive than creative!

I also have a painting of the barn at Wilder Ranch that I need to continue work on.

I started two new figure drawings I am excited about. They are based on the rotation of the dwarf planets Pluto and Charon. My idea was two rotating figures. Had a lot of fun going through figure drawings to come up with the combination of figures in the drawing. Now what do I do with it??
