East Wing

Acrylic on Panel - 6 x 6 inches

I tried to simplify wherever possible, but still got mired in the details, so I scraped it off.
A bit looser on the second go, but still not what I was aiming for.

Garden Pathway

Acrylic on Panel - 5 x 7 inches

This was a quick sketch, trying to ignore small details, and staying focused on areas of color. Not as easy as it sounds. I did a few other versions, some before, and some after. Some in ink and some in ArtRage on the iPad.

Up Alamo

Acrylic on Canvas - 18 x 18 inches

Another view of the edge of Alamo Square Park. I've just discovered that the park is going to be closed for improvements for 9 months (and these things always go long). Could make this whole series more valuable in the interim. Ahem.

Tacos

Acrylic on Panel - 4 x 6 inches

The neon sign was so cool that they kept it even after the taco place changed to an asian fusion place. They still have one taco on the menu out of respect. I really loved the way it flooded the building with red hot light.

Parade Watch

Acrylic on Cardstock - 4 x 6 inches

This woman was watching the cherry blossom parade from her balcony, but she didn't seem very interested.

Coffe and Spoon

Acrylic on Panel - 6 x 6 inches

The title says it all. It was very challenging to get a wooden spoon on a wood coast to read as a separate object.
