Grace Christian School in West Kittanning
Posted in My Art, Uncategorized on April 8, 2011 | 2 Comments »
The Grace Christian School located in West Kittanning, Pennsylvania held an art event this day. Stacey Phillips, an art teacher, requested for me to bring in some art for several classes. I was happy to attend, after all the school is about one mile from my home. We discussed several options. We decided I would [...]
“Wheatfield” Update
Posted in Historical, My Art on March 28, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
The painting of the “Wheatfield” Civil War art is still far from completion. However, I have had some questions as to the progress at times. I took a few photos of just to give the reader an idea as to what has been accomplished thus far. This important battle was fought at Gettysburg in 1863 during the difficult [...]
Furbearer Series
Posted in My Art on February 16, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
Last year I completed a painting series known as the “Big Game Series.” I immediately began planning and painting the “furbearer series.” This group of paintings consist of four species of wildlife usually considered part of the furbearers. The four I selected to paint are the, ever popular, raccoon; the bobcat; the muskrat and the grey fox. I [...]
A Week’s Worth of Interests
Posted in Deer Hunting, My Art, My Family on December 6, 2010 | 2 Comments »
I have been a busy little fellow. I spent Tuesday and Wednesday of last week butchering the buck. I made sixteen pounds of burger; canned 35 jars of venison; made jerky; cut steaks; and sliced some thin “steak-um like strips of meat. My butchering influence stems from my grandfather. In my youth, I enjoyed going [...]

On October 11, 2010, my friend Bob (Slim) Bowser and I visited Gettysburg. The primary reason for the visit was to view, study and photograph the area of the battlefield known as the “Wheatfield” or the “Whirlpool of Death”. This battle was on July 2, 1863. From the photo, the area with goldenrods and high grasses was, [...]

I am behind with yesterday’s muskie fishing event. I decided to place both onto one blog. We entered the waters early with a fog and comfortable temperatures. These conditions didn’t last long. the fog quickly burned off and the day reached into the upper 80′s by the time we quit fishing. Several hours of [...]
Pennsylvania Big Game Series
Posted in Misc. Nature, My Art, Wildlife on August 9, 2010 | 4 Comments »
Last year on the first day of the Pennsylvania regular deer season I was setting in a pine forest enjoying all nature had to offer. I was doodling down any ideas that came to thought within my feeble mind. As I sketched a White Pine the idea to do a wildlife series emerged among the [...]
Bode
Posted in My Art on August 2, 2010 | 2 Comments »
I haven’t painted many paintings of pets. I don’t know why except the fact I don’t pursue the issue for interest. I painted a Rotweiler named Logan two years ago and a Lab last year, I believe. I recently completed a painting featuring an acquaintance’s pet dog named Bode. Briefly, she (Kathy) spotted this dog in the [...]
