Pinata - figurative oil

After Five - oil pastel figurative

This is a tiny sketch for a larger piece. I did it in a hurry and didn't have a chance to put in many details and maybe that's a good thing. An impression of the scene is really what I was after. Oil pastel on Strathmore 403 - 5" x 4".

Drama Queen - oil, figurative/portrait

I am back from my short hiatus - tanned and rested. Well, maybe not tanned, but certainly rested. And with lots and lots of material with which to create my people stories.

Plus, I was so lucky to encounter tango enthusiasts fresh from tango tours, cruises actually. They danced as I drew. More of these subjects will be posted in the coming days.

Bar Scene - oil pastel figurative

I had to do this drawing practically in the dark and very quickly, too. It was hard to see exactly what colors I was using, so I just relied on value.

There was just something about the jesture of this pose that attracted me. Of course, they didn't keep it for long. I LOVE drawing people when they are just being themselves and aren't "posed".

This oil pastel is 9" x 9" on Strathmore 403 paper.

Sweet Nothings - figurative oil on board - 7" x 5"

Another Red Dress - figurative oil on panel - 7"x 5"

I loved doing this one - this couple had such emotion, as well as being really good dancers. I didn't sand the last gesso coat on this and it's more textured than I usually do, so I enjoyed working on this surface for a change of pace.

sold

Red Dress - figurative mixed media - dancers

Here's another of my watercolor crayon/oil pastels on black Stonehenge paper. It's approximately 5" x 3 1/2".

This couple did a mix of Argentinian tango and a newer version. They were interesting to watch.

Jitterbug 4

Here's another little version of the larger works of dancers that I do.

Daydreamer

I just love it when a person (in this case, a young girl in the library) just relaxes into a pose and I have time to draw without having to take a photo to work from later. This drawing was done from a charcoal sketch in oil pastel on Canson Mi-Teintes.

More Tango

Here's one for Valentine's Day. This 20" x 16" oil is based on a charcoal drawing I posted earlier. SOLD
