More work in progress



I started these portraits a while back but ended up putting them aside for some commission work. I've since taken them out and am hoping to pick up where I left off.....this is always a daunting thing for me, returning to a piece. The mood is never quite the same or the intent. This could be a good thing...

the grey mare


I have dreams about scenes like this. I think that this horse must be mine in some distant future. The painting is small, only 8X10'', but the size seems appropriate and it hangs quite nicely above my nightstand.

Works in Progress


this is a study of a Pre-Raphaelite painting by Sir Eduard Burne-Jones....a sister's request.
