Korean War, 23" X 28", Oil on Panel, 2008

Thought I would post this painting as the topic came up of fashion in my figure painting class at BYU. I used to wear this jacket in high school and they are now back in style. My grandfather wore it during the Korean conflict while serving in the Marine Corps.

Bust of Homer

Oil on Linen Panel, 3" X 5", 2009

I love working small. I remember visiting the National Gallery in London and being surprised at the size of Van Eyck's, Man in a Red Turban. When I go to museums, like other artists, I tend to stand very close to the work hanging on the walls. (Even setting off alarms in museums around the globe.) That intimacy brought on by the scale of work is something that intrigues me.
