For my daughter Kate on her 30th birthday, I decided to create a watercolor portrait of her daughter. I used a photo reference that husband Kyle had taken as he just tucked Leighton in for the evening (nap).
Here's a 22" x 30" watercolor painting of a beautiful structure located in St. Petersburg, FL.

I originally posted this last year, I just got around to getting another blog site and decided to re-post it. Here are my friends, John Sawvel & his lovely spouse Sarajo, with the framed portrait of Sarajo over the mantle. (Nice frame btw) I did this a little while back, it was a belated wedding gift. They'll be having their 4th wedding anniversary this coming May! Please visit the "Oil Paintings" page to see more my paintings in oil.
I was asked to create an illustration of an early colonial Spanish woman & child including several artifacts. This color illustration would be reproduced as wall tiles for a remodeling project within the Arts District of St. Augustine, FL. Here are images of the installed wall tiles. To see the actual illustration & more images visit the "Museum Illustrations" page in my portfolio.
