  • Portrait of Van Gogh as a Young Man

    I did this pencil portrait from a photo of Van Gogh that was hanging in the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam.  It’s a bit hard to believe he was ever this healthy in appearance.  His self portraits reveal his struggle for mental health and artistic achievement.

  • Carmen Stretches

    Carmen Stretches, pen and ink, 21 x 29 cm, 8.25 x 11″ SOLD
    Carmen is one of my favorite models. She’s lanky, a ballerina with great stretching poses.  As you can see, this had to be quickly done.   Sometimes you get the best results when you do not have much time.

  • Conversations

    This is another in my Hopper series, this one inspired by Hopper’s Automat.  Strong lines contrast with fuzziness in the figures, overhead lighting with the darkness outdoors, the comparative focus of the indoor scene with the night, a feeling of having conquered the uncertainty of the darkness but with but a slim barrier of safety.
