Thanks for stopping in. Here is the latest project I’m working on, it’s a 40″X30″ acrylic on canvas (grist mill). Estimated finish date next month-ish? (April). Drop in for further updates.

3/29/2020  Grass. Layers and layers of every variety of green and every other colors thrown into it.

3/25/2020  Not much of an update but I’ve noticed that a lot of artists will only show a finished painting or a finished portion of a painting. So I thought it would be interesting (maybe) to see the intermediary steps of my painting process; to see the ugly (where I start) and the beauty (I hope) when I finish.

4/22/2020 Since the Grist Mill painting ( non-commission) has come to a screeching halt – for now – I’ve started the newest commissions for 2020. I’m currently in the “ULTRA” ugly phase enjoy!.

4/28/2020 More progress, exiting the ugly phase, and concentrating more on detail.

5/09/2020 Back to the mill. I’ve got to stop detailing rocks or I’ll never finish.

I hope I have something of interest for you, or better yet leave a comment or suggestion about a topic. If it’s questions about work/prices there is an email form at the bottom of the “About” page.

Drop in, say hello, leave a comment, let me know what you think I would really like to know. Just below.

Thanks,

Jim

Capturing a likeness has been my fascination and frustration (less now hopfully!) since I started on my art journey way back even before the 8 bit computer days. If you are interested in seeing my proceess  click on the link under “Youtube Videos” at the bottom of the page. I have a few videos in tutorial style or timelapse format.

If you are interested in having a portrait done please drop me a line –  commissions are open now – and I’ll email you the details and prices. You’ll find a contact form at the bottom of the “About” page.
