This portrait was taken from a photograph shot by Robert Lyle. 

The background is completely made up.

The frame was hand-made.  The decorative accents on the frame were  made with sculpting clay.

Although I like my drawings of birds better than my paintings, I LOVE my WAR EAGLE!

Melissa Bear

Niece of my neighbor.

This is the second portrait I did on commission, and the first time I ever painted a horse!

Tyler Webber

This portrait was done as a gift for my dear friend, John Webber.  John liked the sepia look.

This painting is one of my first attempts at wildlife.

My elk was inspired after my neighbor served me my first elk steak!  Actually, I'd rather they be left alive.  I'll shoot them with my camera if I ever get the chance!

This is one of my first paintings.  I took art lessons from Eve Perry in order to meet the requirements to teach Arts and Crafts at Jeff Davis.  She tied me to a railing and taped two brushes together to teach me to paint with my body instead of my fingers.  This was displayed at Sac's Gallery.
