Sandman Motel

Sandman Motel, Rawlins, WY, 30"x40", oil on gallery wrap, $2750

I am finally back. I have shrugged off the last of my Scott Christensen cobwebs and feel like I am myself and not some weird, awkward version of myself. It always bothers me when people ask questions like, "what kind of white do you use or what kind of brush is that." It reminds me of something my dad always used to say to his opponents when playing golf, "do you breathe in on you backswing or you downswing?" The point is, does it really matter? In this case, I was loving a synthetic brush over my old bristle brushes and that made all the difference to me. I guess sometimes the little things do matter.

This piece was published in LifeStyles Magazine here in Atlanta as part of the Southern Traditions editorial. The partnership is a new one and I am very excited to be working on such a beautiful publication. Due to the time crunch, this piece is very small. Subsequent illustrations will be larger and auctioned off as well. Look for this one done 24"x24"

Blog Trouble

My blog has not been working properly. I can not upload photos and text at the same time, I am surprised if this will even post. I am hoping that since there is no photo in it, that it may work! I will still be posting to dailypainters.com, dailypaintworks.com and dailypainteroriginals.com.

If I have to, I will just post images, but I would rather do both.

I have had this on my list of paintings to do for quite some time. I am glad I waited until now to paint it. It is by far my favorite car piece...

Simple Ground PLane

Simple Ground Plane, 8"x10", oil on RayMar panel

Playing with the ground plane... I did this one the same day as the other Thompson Farm painting. The ground plane was so active, so I decided to so something simple.
