The Strap

Painted this one alla prima from a photograph taken at my wife's open house event she had a couple of weeks ago. I really liked the position of the figure and thought it might make a good figure study.

The Three Wiseguys

The image below is a detail shot from the painting above. Just in time for Christmas we have the Three Wise Guys on Mulberry Avenue, New York City.

Rockhouse Cabin

Retired

Did this plein air piece this afternoon. This old schoolbus hasn't carried any passengers for quite some time. Unless varmits count, of course.

Dirt Road to Paradise

Late Shift

Where's the Beef?

Painted this from a photograph taken at the Esther House event, Esther's Evening of Hope.

Ken Auster Workshop ~ #4

The above painting, along with the other three posted with "Ken Auster Workshop" in the titles were all painted during a three day workshop with Ken in Charlotte, North Carolina from October 8 thru October 10, 2008. It was supposed to be a plein air workshop but it rained every day so we painted inside from some of Ken's photographs. Any questions or comments just let me know.

The following four paintings are BY KEN AUSTER and were done as demonstrations for the workshop I recently attended.

Judd House

I call this one the Judd House because it was occupied for many years by the Harlan Judd family. Now the inhabitants happen to be my mother and father.

Dry Autumn View on Little Renox

Not a lot of color right now. Too dry. Looks like the leaves are going to mostly turn brown and fall off this year. Painted this up Little Renox Creek today behind my sister's house.
