Grandson and Friends
Grandson and Friends
11x14in oil on canvas sold
When my daughter-in-law asked me to donate a painting for a fundraiser of the school my grandson went to, I was thrilled to be asked. She sent me several photos and I picked a few showing some school gardening activity. This is a composite from those images. It is a perfect example of how the shape of a head and body build informs us of who the person is because this is such a good likeness of my grandson, even from behind.

I am a painter living in Las Cruces, NM. After many years as an illustrator I turned to fine art to develop my own artistic voice. I currently teach talented and enthusiastic artists in oil, acrylic and egg tempera painting. I am also a member of the Artist Guild of Southern New Mexico.
