New paintings

Playing with oil sticks...

I just started using oil stick for the first time a few days ago, and am loving them. Here are a couple of small paintings that I used acrylic, graphite and oil sticks.

Back in the saddle....studio:)

I am feeling happy, rested and somewhat energized. This cold weather has me moving slower than usual, one more cup of strong coffee should have me moving at a decent pace.

With a much needed break, I am back in the studio rethinking old canvas and working on some fresh ideas for a new body of work.

Here are a few pics of my Santa Fe getaway:)
