Giving Credit Where It's Due
All photos, including my avatar portrait, were taken by Fredrik Reiz. He does a wonderful job, is very easy to work with, uses top of the line equipment, and is available for commissions. Drop me a line, if you'd like to hire him.

Today's (9/30/09) Oil Sketch
"Little Black Bird"
3 inches x 4 inches (76.2mm x 101.6mm)
Oil on Solid Oak, Prepped w/ P.V.A and Lead Ground
Ecstatically overwhelmed by the newly arrived colors and smells of Autumn, I opted to perch one of my stuffed birds amongst some branches, outside of my studio; so that I could sit and enjoy the entirety of what this gorgeous morning had to offer. I apologize for the glare, this one ended up being quite thickly painted and is still very wet. I will post a better pic, after it has had a few days to dry. Cheers.

"Stream of Consciousness"
19 inches x 22 inches
Oil sketch on Bristol
Prepped with P.V.A. and old-fashioned Gesso
This was my morning oil sketch from the day before I started the blog. Mind/dreamscape, I often have no idea what these are going to look like until they are finished. I only plan out what sort of palette I want to work with, and choose whether I want the composition to be vertical or horizontal; from there, I move forward in an "ad-lib" fashion.
