HoneyBee

This is honey bee canyon, looking south towards Tucson. My usual graphic style but an attempt at poetic brush stroke. No inventive colors, going for the truth. The canvas is 8 inches by 10 inches and took about 3 hours to paint. (After one hour of wandering around with all the gear, looking at one inspiring view after another.)

My mother claims Rufus looks bored. So here is an action shot with ears flapping.

I started, but did not complete a still life so a bonus Rufus the Yorkie pic for my sister. He is intent on a lizard. A little tired out, panting, a cute butt shot.

Catalina State Park


Here is my painting from this morning. Those are gnats stuck on it.
The grasshoppers and buzzy things were nuts!
Trying the techniques from "Alla Prima, All I Know About Painting " by Schmid
This turned out OK... in other words I don't hate it!
This is pic of our painting spot, that's Gale painting there.
Really needed the umbrella since the sun was in front of us.


Like the celery I did the night before better!





And a Rufus pic!

Grand Puppy Pics


Here is a pic of Rufus the yorkie and me on a trip to Mount Lemmon.
That is a twig on his side, he collects those where ever he goes.
