The Team

A painting of my son's Jr High baseball team and their coach leaving the field after a winning game. 36" x 24" Acrylic paint on canvas.

As I was putting the finishing touches on this one, I was told about Molly, a 16 year old student, softball player at the school and all around great kid. After a few months of going to one doctor after another, it was discovered that she has an extremely rare form of cancer and is now very ill. I can't even imagine what that family is going through. All profits from the sale of prints will go to her family to help with expenses.

I'm Back!

Through sheer idiocy on my part, I stopped posting in May. To be honest, I didn't think that it was a big deal as there were only a few hits here per day. It seemed like a waste of time since the majority of my business is local.

Here's the funny thing though, in my absence this blog actually doubled in popularity.

I had learned about an artist blog called http://emptyeasel.com/ and signed up for the newsletter in April. I started going there for tips on how to get my artist blog noticed and while I haven't been able to use all the suggestions, the few I managed to work in must have made the difference.......You found me didn't you :)

So, no new artwork today but hats off to Dan at Emptyeasil.....THANKS!
