Painting of my dog, Marley
Marley, 14" x 11" oil

Drawing of Tommy at Crealde
Had a good time in Berto Ortega’s class tonight at Crealde drawing a new model named Tommy. I gave him the last drawing I did of him and he sent me a picture of it through his iPhone. He’s a natural model!

Painting techniques and materials
Tad Spurgeon has a great website showcasing his paintings using his research in old master painting techniques and materials.
His book detailing his findings through his years of research on oil painting materials is available through his site. His oil painting putty recipes look especially interesting.
