The wet eye caught the light; it is actually bolder in the painting and watching you.

This is a work still in process; the bright reds will have to go in order to please a customer’s requests…all part of the painting adventures.
Veiltails
The rich reddish orange never gets captured digitally, but it is in the actual painting. My father kept a fish tank for us when we were small children. Perhaps that is behind the draw these golden creatures have on me.

The gull activity at the beach never disturbs me; I could watch it endlessly. These are coming in for snacks in the shallows no doubt. I still have to do some clean up and refinements on this work.

St. Francis, often a statue feature of many gardens, is remembered for his joy in all creatures of earth. To him, they were all his brothers and sisters. I used a painting knife to drag on the last layers of paint for a rough, stoney look.
