These colorful mixture of  chickens are finished. Ready to be sold at a gallery shop in Montana. I will be spending the next few weeks there to be with family and friends.

This was the quick study of "Alpine view".  I love the bright colors and looseness by painting in a hurry.  I painted an under painting of Red oxide so that it would all be in harmony.

I needed to paint some chickens so this is my first attempt at  the subject. It was fun to just mess round a little and to try a few bolder strokes. Ready to start the final painting. I will post it tomorrow.

This is a revised version of the original. I worked on the water a little more. I think this will do.

My obsession with doors


Once in awhile I like to dabble in photography. This photo of the temple doors is part of my obsession with doors. "Knock and it shall be opened, seek and ye shall find."   Such beautiful craftsmanship went into the making of this door.


This weathered old door I found in the Royal City in China. I'm not sure how old this door is but it caught my eye because of the texture of the crackled paint and the sun drenched red color.
