These are some of the paintings that are on our walls at home. Some are commissions or paintings I've sold or given away. The sketches I do on an ongoing basis just to keep my eye/hand coordination going. I have a small travel pad with a clutch pencil I take around with me. If I'm every waiting for an appointment, or especially when I was flying a lot, I would look for a picture in a nearby magazine ("In the seat pocket in front of you") that catches my eye and draw away. It's really good practice. (Click on painting for larger view)
