16 x 20 oil portrait. I took a snapshot of this lady while she so graciously posed for me. I loved the hat and her stylish demeanor and couldn't wait to paint her. It is painted on dream kanvas using the dry brush method. Won second place ribbon at the 2011 Monroe Artists Art Show.

McBurney Family Oil
This was a commissioned portrait on a 22 x 30 canvas, framed with a 6 inch wide frame. The frame was a family antique that was restored by the owner. The setup pictures were taken in the open field at different times. The daughter with the horse was in a different setting and the photo was inserted into the landscape. The parents photo and the 4 sons photos were then merged into the landscape. The daughter's flowing gown was in the original picture, so a formal setting photograph was used to "dress up" the remainder of the family members. This was the most challenging undertaking I have tried to date. Everyone told me I was crazy to even begin it, but the owner had a lot of faith in me and urged me to have fun with it and I really did end up having fun.
