Taking a Break – Sort of….

Posted in daily painter, Travel, tagged , , , , , , on December 1, 2013| Leave a Comment »

HH Stdio I am taking a short break away but it’s hard to go without painting when you are accustomed to painting every day so I am working on a large painting of the local marsh view.  It’s nice to change up the subject matter from the mountains, vineyards, and baseball parks I have been painting the last several months.  I hope to finish it today so I can share the finished painting tomorrow.

A Veteran Picks Up His Painting

Posted in Commissions, tagged , , , , , on November 23, 2013| Leave a Comment »

Marine Corps Memorial Mr Taylor 1 Marine Corps Memorial Mr Taylor 2 Yesterday Mr. Taylor came by to pick up the painting of the Marine Corps War Memorial that I have been working on the last week or so.  He was very happy with it.  (Whew!)  A friend and good customer (who was also a veteran) was in the shop at the time and so Mr. Taylor explained the significance of the painting to him.

The photo was from around 1963 when he served in the drum corps.  He is the first drummer on the second row in the painting.  (He was pointing that out to us in this photo.)  He described how they had these events every week throughout the summer months and for special occasions.  And the two of them talked about Vietnam where they both served.  It was so interesting to hear their stories.  Thanks Mr. Taylor for the commission and for sharing some of your history with me.

Marine Corps War Memorial in progress

Marine Corps War Memorial in progress

Several months ago while I was in the midst of painting ball parks I got an unusual commission request.  A gentleman brought in an old photo that he wanted transformed to canvas of a formation in front of the Marine Corps War Memorial.  The photo is probably from the 70’s and he is one of the guys in the formation.  This is not something that I ordinarily do but he was insistent so I took the commission.  I worked on it this weekend and here is how it is going so far.
