In this quick small study of young Rembrandt, I am working out the placement of lights and darks and setting the color scheme for a larger detailed commission.

Communion With The Sun
acrylic on canvas 24x24 ~2004
I found this photo of a painting I did in 2004. I was really enjoying my work with acrylics at that time. It is very free and easy. I like the combination of colors created when the water mixes on the canvas. I wish I still had this one.

The Laughing Boy -
A painting by Frans Hals.
I really like the way he left his strokes very loose and spontaneous. I love the way he captured the spirit of the little boy and did not try to pretty him up.
I've been busy with some portraiture commissions. It's been great getting to know the people I'm painting and becoming part of their lives, if only for a while. It's been very enlightening to meet so many diverse people.
It's been a great year, I hope yours has been great too. Here's to an even brighter future!
