"Porch Swing" 9"x12" (Click here to bid on eBay)
Sorry about this late post. I got busy with three illustration projects and one oil portrait commission that I have been meaning to finally paint for more than two years now. Our move to Phoenix, and a death in the commission's family has put it on a continual hold.
This porch swing belongs to Frank Ordaz in Auburn, California. I shot another nice set up of Frank's garden wagon. It's one of his kid's old Red Flyer that he now uses for his garden tools and pots. I basically went there and ransacked his home for still lifes to paint. He has an amazing home that's like a Disneyland for artists with it's gardens and cool knick knacks that he's collected.

Mick..I am so blown away at how well you captured the light and the feeling of my porch...I mean I am so amazed at your gift of translating oil paints into capturing the light and sense of place...just ..wow!!!!! okay...I am just going to have to out bid the next guy....
You can paint anything Mick. That is, in my opinion, the mark of a true artist. One that casts his eye and interest on something and it magically takes on a life which he puts into it...the life that is also his own. That would be you.
So well done and a tender scene.
I love the color and feel of this. Something a little different than your typical work! I love it! :)
(which doesn't imply I don't love your other work as well!!) :)
just stunning, beautiful light, brilliant detail, so painterly r.
Scintillating!
This painting looks very peaceful!!
