I'm back with a huge oil painting project


Where have I been since my last post? Working on several oil paintings including these four. (I'll post the other two paintings I've been working on later this this week.) These four oil paintings are each 4-5 feet tall. Click on the photo above to see them better. The paintings are designed to hang together or apart. The subjects are a sweet Lincoln Park family on their roof deck. My studio assistant Tracee Badway and I have been working on capturing the values in gray scale before we add color. I'm very excited and pleased with how this is turning out. Watch this studio news blog for the final color version in a few weeks. My artwork photographer is Scott Keely who does great work.
