Ballet Leap

Original Painting - Acrylic on canvas 9x12




This small study features my grand daughter, Callie Tuchel, in silhouette at one of her performances. The lighting and positions of the figures created an unusual dynamic that I wanted to capture. This painting was inspired by a photo taken by Annie Jones. SOLD! Prints are available.



Prints of this painting are still available.

Don Quixote



Original Painting - Acrylic on canvas panel 12x9


This was a classroom demonstration for a painting from life exercise. This small wood carving of Don Quixote has been in my studio for at least 25 years. Cervantes' Spanish hero was an impractical idealist. Like all artists, I've tilted at my share of windmills over the years. Available from the artist for $600.00
