I've been working on this painting for quite a long time, putting it away when I didn't like the direction it was going in, picking it back up and spending a lot of time with it. I think it's quite close to completion now, a few splotches here and there and I will be satisfied. This is a commissioned piece for a friend of mine, one of the few photos of him and his father...it had been Photoshoped a bit-a "claw" hand put in, a few old cars and some people edited out or covered with grass. It's really a special painting and I hope it turns out just the way I would like. The colors in this picture aren't the best so I may try posting a better shot later on.

This piece is very nostalgic. I am sure it will be appreciated. It is a different kind of pressure to capture a peron's memory, but you have done a fine job.

This looks like a geeat story! I have to think it is grand capturing a moment for someone and putting it on canvas. I have always WISHED I had some artistic talent, but alas, those genes went to one of my brothers, my sister, my son, a couple of granddaughters... Anyhow, I love looking at what others are able to do and marveling at the results!
