Since my last post was all about building stretcher bars, I figured I had to follow that up with a post about new paintings that are stretched on blogged stretcher bars. Since getting back into the studio I’ve resumed three older paintings as well as started two new ones. Here are some progress shots.

I’ve also been doing some ink drawings which might seem different from some of my typical abstract work. It doesn’t matter to me so much when things look figurative or abstract, its all the same in my mind. But regardless if there is a recognizable shape or not, I want to more clearly define my visual ideas. So with that in mind and the odd thought of creating designs that could work on t-shirts, I started doing drawings influences by all the various birds living in my area and in my head.
