Beauty Counter No.2


Oil on Panel. I went to the mall a few months ago to take some refference photos for some of these paintings and was told to stop taking photos by the mall security. She said the stores are afraid that people will steal the display ideas. Hmmmmm.

Oil on panel about 14"x 20". This was some kind of pirate themed attraction viewed from the side. I was drawn to the mysterious exiting stairway.

A&W


Here is carnival painting of an A&W Rootbeer stand. This is painted on panel and is about 14"x20". I was fascinated by the intense fluorescent light emanating from the A&W pod contrasted with the ambient light of the surroundings.

Carnival Swings.....in another light


Same subject matter just earlier in the day. It is amazing how light can make the same subject appear and feel so different.

Vendors


I called this one, Early Sunday Morning Vendors. I have always loved painting cityscapes and thought it would be an interesting problem to fuse some toys into a city scene.
