Spring Lake

This painting is titled Spring Lake. This is a 12 inches tall by 9 inches wide oil painting. The grass is still you. The mountain in the background hasn't melted its snow. The flowering trees are blooming. The water is still icy cold. This is a place where I would love to go fishing and catch some nice trout. This is on eBay

Still Lifes - Fruits and Vegetables in the Old Masters Method



These are 9"x12" oil paintings.  It was my first time trying out the old masters geezer method. Starts out with painting several layers of transparent paint. The last stage is putting on the opaque paints. This method brings out the oil paints luminosity.

Texas Pond..

Texas Pond 9"x12" oil painting on stretched canvas


This is Buffalo Wallow Pond in Abilene State Park. It is up for Auction at Ebay starting at 1 cent. Click here to bid.

I remember the first time I visited this pond. It was very hot and humid day. The Park Ranger told me to park at the visitors parking so I could see the scenic route. I was sweating more than broken water main.

Seascape


18"x24" Oil painting.

I am listing back on eBay.

Last night, my computer decided it isn't going to recognize my camera as a device. I was tired and decided to fiddle around doing ridicules nonsense fixes instead of turning around to my computer geek son to fix it. Basically, my fixing the computer came to plugging and unplugging the USB cable until the blasted software decided to recognized hardware device, burped another moment of denial of recognizing the device pop up but uploaded the photos anyways. Victory! When it happened, I didn't think to poke my expert computer son in the ribs and show him what I did so he can have another that's impossible moment with the computers. I take it one of the updates to one of the programs to the computer rendered the program I have been using for over a year to near uselessness. Yeah, I know the problem really isn't fixed. I know my explaining to my son the problem and how I managed to get the computer to upload the photos will have my son scratching his head like he has a bad case of fleas: Priceless!
