Jean Luc, 14x11"

I liked the look of this young lad so much, I decided to paint him.  Sometimes a face in the crowd proves to be irresistible, so I surreptitiously snap a photo and use it as the basis for a painting.  I change things around pretty significantly, so these paintings aren't exactly wonderful likenesses, but I'm after a mood here, not a portrait per se.

Red Hat Adventures (Triptych) 6x6 each

I have a demo coming up next week, so if you are in the northwest suburbs of Chicago, I hope you'll stop by!  The topic will be "Loosening Up Your Painting Style", and it will be put on by the Long Grove Art Guild on Wednesday, February 13 at 6:30pm in the Long Grove Village Hall.  Email Barbara at artandlit@msn.com to reserve your space.
