This is a painting of a mare I own "Hollywood Duchess" she is a great horse and is really fun to ride.

I love primary colors in a landscape! This spring I was drawing caricatures at an outdoor party when I looked over and saw these boys playing with the trucks. I had my camera with me and quickly took some photos in between drawings.

This painting was started on location and finished in the studio.

The top painting is a very quick oil of the Wisconsin Point Lighthouse, near Superior WI. The wind coming off of Lake Superior was freezing! This was finished in less then two hours.

The middle picture is a watercolor my mother, Marion Walker, did. Mom was smart and painted this in the comfort of her car and as she is eighty-two years of age she certainly deserves to paint in the car if she wants!

The bottom picture is an oil painting I did of my Mom this winter. It's a quick painting under three hours

This is a small plein air I did last Friday of Minnehaha Falls,

near Mpls MN.

I was painting with Bob Upton. It's always fun painting with other artist. This was a little more challenging then I assumed it would be, but it was just great to be out there.

I have been taking a life drawing class on Thursdays. It is a great way to keep you're drawing skills sharp. The women is a forty minute sketch the guy is five minutes, both are done in charcoal.
