Ok, I'm Back---East Point Boats and Fawzi



I've been working pretty steadily on my new web site, and still have plenty of tweaking to do. Got several dead links on the menu, and have decided I will slice the menu into individual buttons and create rollover images instead of hotspots.

I have posted 125 photos on the site photo page.

I realize my target date for starting my painting a day series is out the window, but I wanted to get my main web site completely going before I start steaming along on paintings. I have also decided I will not be creating a painting a day, but more realistically, a painting a week (or more).

Just began working on a 5"x7" acrylic on Gessoboard work of some East Point, FL oyster boats, as well as a small 5" x 5" inch canvas of my male cat, Fawzi.

Posts will resume now and I will be posting some photos of my paintings as they progress from finish to end. I have about 2.5 hours in the boat painting so far. I have the underpainting done and now I'm layering on the washes. Hopefully the next post I will have the finished work.

Hope everybody has a great, safe Thanksgiving weekend. :-)
