Remnants

Not yet varnished, with some sinking in, so it's showing some unwanted suede effect right now. 9 by 12 " on wood panel.

Skull study

A painting study of a coyote skull, an additive approach.

Charcoal skull and feathers

It's been a while since I drew in charcoal so I did this...trying out a new procedure explained by a great friend. It's quite small, 6 by 8 so the texture really shows when you get close on the photo..definitely better to see the real thing but hey, it's the internet..

Yerba Mate

This is a painting I did a while back on pretty rough canvas. I like to drink mate.

Bargue 56

Did this direct, i.e alla prima which I don't usually do but this one was relatively straightforward and not too large. Not all the shadows are actually that dark but the camera always seem to screw up the contrast issues..

Pear and eggs

A still life I did a while back that was on the shelf drying...and yes the pear was really ripe...although the photo enhances that effect quite a bit

Bargue 55

I'd been lagging on this one, but finally got round to wrapping it up...
