A new painting, AND come see my demo Saturday!

This canvas is the same size as "Worried", 35" x 35", so it's really BIG! I'm thinking of trying some unreal colors for this painting...maybe yellows and blues, kind of cold, like marble.

Also come see me Saturday from 10:00 to 1:00 at the Woodlands Waterway Arts Festival. I'll be at The Woodlands Art League tent in the middle of the green doing a portrait demo. There will be some great artists with me including possibly the amazing Cheng Lian. Lian is one of the greatest painters I know and it will be a treat for everyone to see the process we go through to create our portraits. I'll be doing a demo of "the Venetian Tradition" method of painting. I'm bringing a toned canvas so that I'll have that step out of the way before I get there. The Venetian Tradition is a 5 step method, 500 years old, that usually takes weeks to months to complete and I'm going to try to finish a painting in 3 hours...so don't expect the Mona Lisa.
