I'm going to post at least two paintings a week...minimum. Most will be 5"x 7" to keep things small, but like the first one...they will vary. I'll be including a link to Ebay to bid on these. Any that don't sell will be designated on this blog, and can be purchased for the minimum of $100.00

I've been an artist since age 5, when I remember drawing an airplane better than my older brother. It was a bi-wing with a propeller, (not that I'm that old... it was 1957 and it was a racing plane), and it was encouraging because up until then, it was the only thing I could remember doing better. I kept at it, and now nearly 50 years later I'm still trying to improve my creative process. Now I realize you never get better than anyone else... just more unique to your own style, and become the best painter you can be.

Mick, This one is just fantastic! I love the strong verticals in the composition.
Thanks Craig...I was more excited about the bright colors that I was trying to show, but now that you mention it, there were alot of verticles that I had to manage.

Mick - my momma was from the south - she raised us to drink ice tea even in the dead of winter -
Very appealing painting - love the play of light off the ice cubes and the reflections on the napkin holder.
Mick....awesome job as usual. The amber color of the tea.....the sunlight on the glass. Fabulous.
You are like me with the camera out whereever I go!
Now if only I could translate the images to paint like you can!!
Look at all those reflections you got. Great job.
My friend (Robin) introduced me to your "vision". It was so inspiring that I will (after many years) squeeze paint from the tubes and douse myself in color. Thank you!
