The paintings, Pencil Drawings and Photography galleries have been updated! Commissions are available for some of the images to be created in Acrylic or oil paintings. Prices listed are for photo images framed.  I have several "Works in Progress" currently on my drafting table and in my art studio.   I have also added a new Work in Progress tab so you can catch a sneak peek of "Soulful Avery" 14x14, is a graphite pencil drawing of a little three-year old girl named Avery, black and white image, she has the most soulful expression - I just had to capture it on paper.  I also have an acrylic on old glass window, "Bourbon Blues" I have completed as well as another pencil graphite drawing, "Woman in the Window", 16x20, of a photograph I took of an elderly lady dressed in vintage London Costume sitting in a store display window in Franklin, TN.  I have several beach scenes I want to begin working on for a series, "By the Sea" and will reveal more details later.  My art studio is quite stocked with good projects underway!
