Painting, Inspiration and Learning

My favorite quote from 2014:"Don't be afraid to wipe that off and start over." --Ned Jacob.

Challenging myself and learning are two of my favorite things. This past year I focused on simplifying form and expressing as much as I can clearly and simply. Additionally I continued to work on accurate gesture sketching and studio painting with energy.
"Value Study-The Chase"

"The Chase"
"Stallion and Sage"

"Morning Dust"
"The Stallion Returns"

"Watercolor from life"
"Making Tie-Dye"

"Cityscape 5"

"Cityscape 7"  
"Finger drawing on the iPad in Wasabi Paint app"

Approaching painting with inspiration and energy is my continued goal for 2015.

May you have a happy, healthy and creative year!
