This is it.

Not sure if it's finished or not, so haven't signed it yet. Gonna look at it some more. Thoughts anyone?

The two pics below are updates...

Below is a painting I started today.

The Deerhunters

Here's an update below. Took out the center tree which I think helps the comp a lot.

Wyeth and Model

The pic below is what I think, might be, the final. Thoughts?

Update...

Just finished the sketch on this one. From a reference photograph of the artist N.C. Wyeth in front of his painting "Round-Up", using a model who is seated on a saddle. This one will be interesting to see if I can pull it off. Definitely the most difficult to date.

N.C. Wyeth

Hambone

I don't usually post works in progress. But as my painting time in the past few, and the next few, days are limited, I thought I'd post what I started yesterday. I hope to finish it before the end of the weekend.

~~ Well, I think he's finished. Would like to hear any comments anyone may have.

Defeated

This was painted using an Edward Curtis photograph from 1905 as a reference. It depicts Pose-a Yew, a Nambe Indian Brave. I don't know the story of this Brave, but the look he conveys, appears to me as one of defeat, hence the name of the painting.

After the Rain

Brave

Painted this from another Edward Curtis photograph. My first portrait larger than life size.

Morning Prayer

Here is my latest featuring a Native American. This was painted using an old photograph taken by Edward Curtis. I'm including a couple of detail shots.
