Two New Oil Paintings

I am meeting myslef coming and going these days. The good news is that I am being artistically productive. The bad news is that if you drop by my house is not likely to be clean.
I am still enjoying my oil painting classes with Frank. This first painting is inspired by artist Alice Williams. A number of us in the class were interested in learning her technique, so we each painted different versions of her paintings. Don't freak on me, this is pretty common practice in learning art techniques. even the masters copied each other.


The next painting is a potrait of Daniel, who we met in Ethiopia. I love this one. I think I might enjoy portrait painting.


What do you think?
