In other news, I was invited into a 5 person show in June at Anne Irwin Fine Art in Atlanta Georgia.  Very excited about that.

In yet more news, here are a couple new paintings:

Begonia Sketch, 14 x 11 on linen

Contact Tidewater Gallery for more information.

48 x 24 inches, oil on canvas

The Shelf Still Life #1 represents years of pondering about the shapes of things, and creating compositions that have strong abstract compositions while demonstrating an intimate sort of technical realism.  I enjoyed this painting quite a lot.  It’s 4 feet wide, and all the objects are life size.  So when viewing it, all the narrow winding spaces between the objects become apparent.  I was trying to show a sort of quiet space, a hush, with real things placed in a way you might experience them, yet with a dynamic, abstract expressionistic quality to the composition.

I’m going to be teaching 2 new workshops at the end of April: portraits and still life.  These are landbased workshops that will take place in Aurora IL.  Please visit here for more information. http://artstudiosecrets.com/onsite-workshops/ I’m only taking 6 students for each workshop, please sign up soon.

Lulu in progress

This is Lulu, part of a series I’m doing of all the daughters and streaming it live on Monday nights at 7pm CST at http://tinyurl.com/lisagloria

Lulu has a day to go yet, but she’s getting close.

Also I started work today with a new figure model.  She has a lovely face, and I’m really happy to have met her.
