First Blog

Some of my friends and family have asked to see photo's of some of my art work.  Years ago I had a web page and it was a real pain to keep up to date.  It seemed I needed to relearn the program each time I wanted to add something.  Technology has come a long way and I think this simple blog might just be the answer.

I'll just give a little background about my art work.  I had painted watercolor for a number of years, but had stopped painting and had not painted at all for about 3 years.  Around the first part of May of 2010 I decided to give acrylics a try.  I've enjoyed using acrylics and I find that I'm painting almost every day.  I'll post a few photo's of my work here today and try to keep this updated as I go along.

This Rose was my first Acrylic painting.

Cherries

Not a very good photo of the cherries, I'll try to find another one to post at another time.

I like the wrapped canvas on the water lilies

Inspiration for this painting was from a photo taken of my cousin Roger Lahr's grandson's.

Actually, this painting isn't quite finished yet.  I still need to do some glazing on it, but I've stopped working on it for the time being.

Any comments will be welcome.  As I said earlier, I'll post more as I go along.
