Some recent paintings

A recent commission:

Seghesio Zinfandel still life

Here's a recent commissioned piece. 18" x 24", acrlyic on canvas. A still life like this makes a great (ahem. AHEM.) Christmas present.

If you want to see the image full-size instead of within the constraints of Blogger's new "light box" feature, open the image in a new window or tab.

Odds and ends

This is a still life commissioned by my mom.  It's 20" x 24" and completed in acrylic.

The following two images are studies done for a friend's tattoo.

This is a colored pencil sketch that is unintelligible to anyone besides me and a few other people so I'm not going to even try and explain it.  I really enjoy working with colored pencils but it's hard to achieve a full value spectrum (white to black / light to dark).  I need to experiment with a watercolor washes.
