September 2013, New Works

Ok, so the last few weeks I have been working on these pieces, while taking an art class with Oklahoma artist Thomas Stotts. Such a great class, one day I will show you the piece I did in the class (medium -oil, tool- palette knife) it will take two months for this piece to dry enough to handle, Stotts said it could take up to a year for it to dry complete. Wow! I know.

So this month has been fun so far with my art projects. What am I saying, I am always having fun with my art projects. Here are my latest works. Enjoy.


This first piece was a custom piece I did for Justine in Louisiana, she asked for something with and aquatic animal but with fantasy elements. The creature at the bottom, was what I thought was made up by me, but when Justine got the piece she knew right away what this actual sea creature was. Little did I know this thing actually existed somewhere. This was a piece that pushed me to explore a little bit, I had fun.
