finally a size that fits


This scan of a recent painting contains a bit more viridian green in the lower right that compliments the reds found in the pomegranate. I feel good about this piece and represents a step in learning a more classical approach.
My wife often complains about her wide feet due to her Andean genetics. A wide foot benefited the Inca in the high Andean mountains. Sadly the indigenous indigenous population is often the last marketed too in terms of consumer goods. Finally, Nike has made an attempt to manufacture a shoe that fits this portion of the population.

I've decided to paint in acrylics and have abandoned oil painting. Oil paint has become too messy, smelly, and the levels toxicity has made it a cumbersome medium.
