Title or Location: The Old, Gray House in the Woods
The painting is from a photo I took in Grant Park (Centerville/Washington Township) on a winter day last year. Our property line abuts the park which is very convenient. So far, I have done over 10 paintings from photos I have taken in the park from all 4 seasons. It is acrylic on a hardboard panel, 20 x 16 inches. I moved back to the area 2 years ago after living outside the Midwest for over 40 years. I am 67 and started painting a little over 3 years ago. I am primarily self-taught.

Title or Location: Smell the rain?
Oil sketch, 11?x14?. This is my first attempt with oils after a 38 year career as an exhibit designer. Started with quick turp washes, then built up some detail. I was going to continue, but I kind of like it the way it is. Anxious to start another, and having fun.

Title or Location: Wooden Wave
This piece is acrylic on wood. I used some scrap pieces I had cut from the end of a wooden board I was using. The actual wave and cliff are from where the knot in the board had separated. As soon as I saw it I knew what I was going to do with it. This is two pieces of wood, individually painted and then screwed together. I love upcycling these scraps.

Title or Location: A memorial drawing of George napping with Chris
I originally drew George for Chris a few years ago but after he passed more recently, Chris came to me with a photograph which he said meant a lot to him and asked if I could do a drawing of it. It was a bit of a challenge but I did the best I could with it and when I sent an image of my drawing to Chris he first just replied ?there are no words? but he then came back later with:?wish you had known him Alan and in a strange way it?s like you did. You portray my bond with him like no one else c
