• My Favorite Clown

    09/04/2022 by

    I had a lot of fun painting this clown. I worked from a plain photograph of Francis and, using an image of Red Skeleton, converted him into a hobo type clown. I have some photos that I want to do the same thing to, but of my grandsons, not hobos, but clowns. But that is… Read more

  • Santa’s Got Color

    09/21/2020 by

    I painted the sculpture of Santa that I did a while back. I was nervous about painting him, because I never did it before.

  • Bring in the Clowns!

    06/19/2022 by

    Last week I was working on clowns. I took a photo of my friend, changed his coloring, added a bow tie and a red nose to remake him into a clown. The first painting was a failure. There were many things I liked about it, but the more I painted the worse it got. I’m… Read more
