It is indeed a time of hope but with all the excitement about the inauguration it's important not to lose site of all those around the country who are suffering. With that in mind, I did this Vermont portrait.

A Winter's day 1.15.09 Oil on gessobord 6"x6" $125
After not painting for awhile it took me a few tries to get this one right. I'm learning that with this type of gestural painting it's important to warm up first, just as you would before exercising. Sometimes it feels like you've forgotten how to paint but with patience it comes back to you.
All paintings seen here are for sale unless specified.

Materials
Cradled gessobord is a product made by Ampersand Art Supply. Two inch wide birch plywood strips are attached flush with the back edge of a wood panel that has been coated with gesso. The finished piece can be hung on a wall or sit on a flat surface and there is no need to frame it.
