On The Easel

Works currently on the artist’s easel and drawing board in 2019. You may watch progress with updates posted often.

Most of my works start with an idea in the mind and journey through photography, pencil, and digital illustration. When I am reasonably happy with the story and imagery I freehand draw or project an image onto canvas or direct my apprentice to prepare the background.

As a storyteller, I like to consider options as I venture deeper into a painting. This means from the original concept to the final product a change in idea may take place. Sometimes quite a departure from the original.

The bulk of my work, as I describe it, is parabolic/allegorical with a surreal twist in photorealism.
