Hallie at Terry Isaac's workshop.

Here is Hallie working hard at Terry's workshop.

Terry Isaac Workshop

Today is day 3 out of 4 of the Terry Isaac workshop. I love Terry's workshops, he is an excellent teacher (and of course amazing artist). I always learn a ton. We are working on an acrylic painting of a tiger head. The days have flown by so far I'll hate to see it end, but looking forward to tomorrow.

Hallie of course is accompanying me and scoring treats off of some of the other students. She's been a very good girl as always. Here is a picture of Terry holding her.

If any artists reading this get the chance to go to a Terry Isaac workshop, please do, you will not be disappointed.

Rusty, chocolate lab commission

I have finished "Rusty", a beautiful chocolate lab that was commissioned as a surprise birthday gift. I really enjoyed painting him, he has amazing eyes and as you can see he is crazy about his ball. This is acrylic on masonite, 18 x 24.

A nice article in the Seattle Times, Monday Dec. 29, 2008.

Here is the rough composition of three wonderful dachshunds, Duggie, Sarge and Looie. I've really been looking forward to this one! It will be 16 x 20, acrylic on gessobord.

Gracie

Here is the finished portrait of Gracie, a beautiful young Dane. I especially enjoyed painting her, having had a Dane myself a few years ago. I love the breed. I think Gracie has exceptional eyes that melt your heart. This portrait is 16 x 20 acrylic on gessobord.
