I have long enjoyed tinkering around the edges of the technology and software world. I haven't shared much on this site lately other than paintings, but over the past year, I built an app to track my art and some dashboards to share stats. (more in the post) #app #appsheet #dashboard

This blog post is all about my fondness for nature scenes as backgrounds in my portraits. It's a concept I deploy often in oil paintings, but one I keep coming back to. Probably in many ways inspired by Bob Ross' Joy of Painting. #art #painting #artist

Although I mostly focus on portraits of people, I also practice animals occasionally. I’ve mostly painted dogs and cats, and the most frequent professional model I use is our family cat. The featured oil painting in this post is of our little Ragamuffin cat sitting in a basket. This was painted alla prima in somewhere between an hour and 90 minutes, which I think turned out well. Likenesses are kind of tricky for animals, but I think this really does look like him.
One big emphasis lately has been natural sitting poses.My hope is to keep working at depicting subjects in normal relaxed poses until those solid efforts mostly overtake the rough. #art #painting #portrait #artist
