Oil on Canvas Board. Approx 10"x10" <p>Another new piece for Susan Powell Fine Art. This was a tough painting to photograph. The bottle in the background was my great-grandfather's and the license plate came from my Dad. It is a composite material since it was during the time of conserving metal for the war. As for the wooden shoe mold, I bought it from the resale shop I patron and instantly fell in love with the shape. Carved out of one piece of wood.

Oil on Board. Approx 8"x8" <p>This is one of my newest pieces for Susan Powell Fine Art. It is actually kind of special to me because it represents my daughters. I have 3 and their names all start with L. I have a couple more painting in this show that I will post in the next couple of days.

Oil on Board. Approx 12"x24" <p>I've used tightly cropped views of this violin before in my work but haven't done a "portrait" of it like this. It belonged to my Grandpa and it's very old.
