Ozark Buntings


I am having so fun with mixed media.
The undercoat is acrylic, the buntings are in oil pastels
 sprayed with a fixative and then detailed with paint markers.
It is on 8 x 10 heavy weight textured paper.

Here's Looking At You

I went back to drawing something more familiar, animal faces. I am intrigued with cat eyes.



Jacob

This is my first attempt at drawing our grandson, Jacob. I couldn't quite nail his expression.
In the photo, his expression is more pensive than surprised. 
 The photo captured such a sweet moment in time, I can always try again.
It is in oil pastels.

The Turquoise Tie

My daughter is getting married and she had me scouting for turquoise ties for the groom's men. I found some and sent her a picture via my cell phone for her approval. Silly me, I decided to paint that picture. Thanks to J. C. Penney for having turquoise ties for the wedding and for providing me subject matter. LOL
