My First Car was a 1960 Austin Healy Sprite.

My first car was a 1960 Austin Healy Sprite. I had just turned sixteen. First, I have to say I really had great parents. My dad always bought convertibles until the eighties. My brother and I were a bit spoiled by our parents. My brother and I shared this car and I can only remember a few arguments on who gets the Sprite for the night. It usually had to do with either a girl or a great night to just cruise. So many memories I had to paint it. This one is not for sale or auction, but goes down in the stone tablets of my youth.

My daily Painting a French Hight Heel Platform Shoe


A friend of my wife, her name is Cheryl, emailed this photo of a high heel shoe. One shoe, and got my attention as a unique subject.
Cheryl is opening a Clothing Store, if I recieve no bids on this art, I'm thinking a good Grand Opening Present. If someone wins this shoe, Don't tell Cheryl.

As I finished this Daily Painting, the cherries seemed as if they were gazing at the orange slice much like lovers gazing at the moon. I though of making them touch and connecting the stems. Nah, just two cherries and an orange slice.

Tired today after my class in Royersford, Pa.
Nice people, and a lot of talent. Annette did not know she could paint. I was surprised how fast she took to oil painting. I think I mentored a beggining artist. Love my Job.

Posted Bo's Fish Wagon on Fresh Painters Website. Feeling the pressure of doing a daily painting

I did this painting in Key West a few years ago. Ran out of paintings to post but I know some artist make a few in a week and post them periodically. So I guess I'm still legit.

Just finished two paintings with orange slices. I will be posting them tomorrow and Saturday after my class in Royersford, Pa.

Today's Daily Painting, "Afternoon Shade"

Spring is coming and I came up with this out of my head. Was not that hard to visualize, a tree and a flowered path.

The Sky a bit too blue, but I like the feel. Oil on canvas board 11x14.
