Calley Krallman Juror's Choice Award in the
Mini Top 50 Competition
"Ethel and Lacey "



Ethel and Lacey
 
Ethel and Lacey - A recent painting of soft pastel on Wallis paper. My first painting of this subject was done on Art Spectrum paper, Wallis is a finer grade of sanded paper which is great for detail. In this second painting I wanted to explore a slight re-balance in composition with a greater depth of color
using more controlled strokes. This is done from a photograph of Jackie's two chickens.
New KU Practice Field
This pastel is called "Game Day- Calm Before the Storm" and is also part of the 2008
SouthWind Gallery event opening November 7th in Topeka, Kansas.

The Boot Before The Boot After

Follow my progress as I painted a 6' tall boot as part of the celebration of the sesquicentennial of Olathe, Kansas in 2007.

The boot is to honor the history of the Hyer Boot Company which began in Olathe around 1880.

Olathe has also been home to five governors which is the theme of my boot design. I painted portraits within five oval frames around the top and scenes of old Olathe on the lower part of the boot.
