Work in Progress

Here you will find quick links to my works in progress (WIP) at my blog site.

The image to the left will always be my latest project that I am working on though not always an updated image of my progress.

All WIP's will be marked completed when I think there is no more to add.

It isn't unusual for me to re-visit work if I feel a painting needs more work done to it at a later time.

Window with a View

There is an old building on the family property that I have often thought about painting a scene looking through a window and thought it would suit a landscape and still life combination.
