It has been a banner week at the gallery. We sold three original paintings, (all shown here.) That is a record for a non-artshow week.

I occasionally get asked why I sell my originals. The way I see it, my work is created to be enjoyed. And unless I plan on lining my tomb with them I would much rather they be sent out into the world. Most of the time, I do miss them once they are gone.

I’ve got some empty spots on my walls now. So I really need to get crackin’. Since all three of the sold images were not horses, I think I had better replace them with non-horse critters.

Today, (which is a Sunday) I went in to the gallery and drew out three new potential paintings. (Another record for me, but since no harnesses were involved, it all went smoothly.) Two are small ones, (a wolf & rhino) to be done on handmade paper, like the buffalo shown below. And a larger grizzly bear on museum board. I will post my drawing of the bear shortly, as he will be the first of the three that I will do.

Obviously, the originals are gone. But to purchase, or get more information on the prints of either The Matriarch or African Contours just click on the image or the title below it.

There are currently no prints available on the buffalo, as he is truely one of a kind.
