ONE LEFT OUT
One more painting ready to go to La Posada de Santa Fe... I'm hoping to do one more before I head out to New Mexico to deliver new work.
This has been a fun series of paintings! I actually did a version of this same idea for the demo I did earlier this week at the Trinity Art League in San Antonio. I did the demo as a 20 x 16 but I wiped it off at the end because the sunflowers died. :(
I've been putting birds in the last three and in the next one I'm thinking a real bird might be fun. I'll just have to think about it a bit. All of the first four have flowers in them so I'll probably do some more flowers... here I am, thinking out loud!

SELF PORTRAIT
SELF PORTRAIT
14 x 11 inches
Oil on Linen
This second attempt at a self portrait turned out a lot better than the first. After a serious fail on the first one, I studied the techniques of Juan Ramirez on Facebook and picked up some really good tips!
