Portrait of Irene

A Spanish girl with her flamenco ribbon was supposed to pose for my demo of Nov 23th. Irene took her place at the last minute for a 90 mins sitting. Irene was born in the mountains of the former Austrian part of Italy. Can you get the difference? [Irene -- Oil on canvas board 20 x 30 cms (8 x 12 inc) -- SOLD]

Chicken Time

My struggle with time management made me buy a timer years a go. It was supposed to help me paint within a given time and do not overwork my painting. Never used it but I am glad is now part of my daily challenge in some other way. Do you too need a reminder to stop at the best? Buy it! [Oil on canvas board 18 x 24 cms (7 x 10 inc) -- for sale w. free shipping]
