Junk Food Quad, 228


Had some friends who wanted a couple of RC's and Moon Pie paintings... so I put them all together for this piece. Thought it looked pretty cool.

Royal Crown 2, 205


Version 2 of the RC Cola logo, a bit smaller than the last one and painted on a colored background. Another great retro logo, they used this up until the late 90's! I think it was introduced in the mid 70's. I love the font and the sweeping design. It is amusing to me what an impact Coca Cola had on ALL soft drink designs. You can really see it in the old Pepsi logo. RC is one of my favorite logos and soft drinks of all time.

Sister Piece, Gift of Love


I don't do pieces more than once, that would be very un-artful... however, in this case, I created a sister piece to an earlier post called Gift of Love. You may need to look at the previous post to get the back story on this piece. Long story short, Mollie, on of my students, wanted to give her mother a painting based on the painting I did for my mother, based on the flowers they brought her. Her mother, Kay, and my mother are kindred spirits. I woke this Mother's Day at 7:00am, and couldn't get back to sleep. All I could think about was doing this painting for Dr. Kay. I love to paint in the morning, it's like meditation. The house was quiet, I didn't even make coffee. I literally rolled out of bed and into the studio. I put on a little music and poured it out. I was very pleased with the outcome and mom was so happy thet she and Kay would have such a special Mother's day gift. The Crosby's have been very good to us, and they have always supportd me in my artistic endeavors. This is the 2nd Boyd, Jr piece they have.

Cold Tap 007


I am very excited about this piece. I love the limited palette, the brushwork, and the composition. Painted upside down and moved around with a palette knife at the end.
