My nice niece.

 I had a wonderful 1.5 hours this afternoon in the company of my very beautiful great-great niece, as we sat down to get acquainted. I received a hug when we met, and a hug when we left.

I met a very petty, articulate and poised young lady. I'm happy she's my niece and that we will see each other over the next 4 years while she attends Brevard College. She has permitted me to post this picture. Portrait sketches of her will be forthcoming; again with her permission.

A Mood sketch

 Photograph vs sketch (not finished). The sketch is a "mood" (not moody - there's a difference) sketch of beauty contemplating.

Being Human

 People –

Acts of Kindness

There are in this world billions of people who do random acts of kindness for their family, friends, neighbors and strangers every day without wanting or even thinking of wanting anything more than “thanks”. This is the true religion: being human.

These are a sequence of pictures that will appear in my 4th book. These photos are to demonstrate my painting process in watercolors. The background will be painted blue and green (shade) which are the complements of the color on the elephants. This will mat to 16x20" and is painted on Arches 140# cold press paper.
