Edification




I guess I should have mentioned that the first painting is my own self portrait, the second is that of a Native American who wandered by as I was painting in the train yards of Phoenix, Arizona one day and the last is a portrait of Ron Rose who is a new friend of mine. Ron told me, when I asked him to pose for me, that he should "...smile, because [he had] some real interestin' teeth!" What a great guy. If you're ever in Az stop by Wittman and you'll see Ron sitting out in front of the first house you come to.
