Three "name" paintings for three lovely sisters

Some more Christmas gifts done!

WINE LABELS FROM DR. FRANK'S ON KEUKA LAKE

Thin verticals and horizontals

The logic used here is that the vertical pieces fit between windows and doors - and the horizontals fit over windows and doors. This logic was supplied by Connie Sickler from her famous Settlement House gallery in Sylvania, PA.

Notice the color discrepancy between the above and below images.

 Lana helped me photograph some of the piece's!

A few new pieces

At the Athens ARTSfest

I spend much time at shows demonstrating my techniques. I like to give others a chance. I did have some time to sell paintings, too. These photos were captured by my friend Andy Wales (http://www.andrewwales.blogspot.com/) who is a comic artist & a fine artist.

Demonstrating how I make textures in the plaster.

Sure, pick something out to try!

The girls enjoyed trying the technique themselves.

Tom Loomis and I start hanging our two man show tomorrow at the new Allen Hall

"Two Men with P.M.S."  Painting, metalwork, sculpture (and jewelry).  Stop by anytime.  Actually, I should have the official times posted for the actual opening next Monday, February 21, 2011. There will be a presentation about the middle of March when Tom and I will talk. Above is one of my paintings that will be in the show. It is presented as a "positive" image and a "negative" image. Can you tell which is which?
