"A Loud Bark"

 

Another in the tree series. Not sure what kind of tree this is but I believe it's in the pine family. 
If anyone knows for sure, please feel free to email me.

"Sunrise 11/5/24-A"

 

There was an amazing sunrise a coupe weeks ago. I took several snaps 
and did two paintings of it. This is the first one.

"Midtown Monstrosity"

 

I'm not sure what this building is. But it's in the heart of Midtown Detroit. 
It may be a power station. Whatever it is, it certainly looks out of place.

"Highland Park Bank #1"

 

Found this attractive old bank driving around the sad city of Highland Park, MI. I was a bit surprised there weren't more derelict banks around. Maybe they were all torn down.

"Sycamore or Less"

 

Found this interesting tree strolling in a local park. I just love the multi-colored bark. I used a plant identification app to find out what kind of tree is was. I'm not 100% sure it's accurate, so if you think it's something else, please let me know.

"The Rage"

 

This is a self-portrait depicting the outrage I feel about the recent presidential election. I've thoroughly given up on this country. We have to have some of the dumbest people on the planet to elect a convicted rapist and felon. We're now the laughing stock of the entire planet. And just wait until Project 2025 kicks in. Can you say 1930's Germany? Fascist state here we come. Better start practicing your goose stepping and the Nazi salute!

"Do the Twist"

 

I got in the mood to paint some trees. So I wandered around a local park and took a bunch of reference snaps. Look for a couple more of these. Fun and challenging subjects.

"Jalapeno A- go-go"

 

I haven't done one of these in a while, so I thought it'd be fun to have a crack at it. I'll admit the title is pretty lame, so if you can think of a better one, feel free to send it to me.

"Be Fruitful"

 

Noticed this beautiful bowl of fruit my wife prepared for my grandson's birthday. 
I couldn't help but commit it to canvas. 

"Birch Backdrop"

  Who doesn't love birch trees?
