fresh starts

Below are two images of a larger indoor painting, which I started today. It is somewhat intimidating to try to synthesize information into a coherent architectural space, somewhat fictional landscapes seem a little more forgiving. The room is a hybrid of my Maw-Maw and Paw-Paw's (my mother's parents) living room from Chester, South Carolina. I have replaced the wooden panel walls with painted ones. 

The painting is 24" x 36".

Painting but not Posting

My apologies for the delay in posts. I am playing catch up on recording the activity taking place in my studio. Here are several paintings in process or completed over the last month.

Paintings that I think are complete:

A previously posted painting with a couple of small changes to my mother's face.

garden hose, 12" x 16"

water ripples, 4" x 12"

featuring the one and only shelby, my faithful dog and studio companion

out back, 16" x 20"

tiny study disappearing self, 3.25" x 2"

in process: 

below is an image with several of the source photos and a full shot of the painting as it stands now
