i wish everyone was as happy as me, gouache on paper, 22×30
A couple of weeks ago I dug into my stash of paper, I pulled out my tubes of gouache and started on a series of small paintings (11×12). I’m going to mount them to wood panels so they can hang as is, or framed. Here are the first 5 of 12:
she meant more than he understood and was less than capable of showing it, gouache on paper, 11×12
she shared his feelings too much and too often, gouache on paper, 11×12
it struck him as a failure in his own sight that he had never seen a ghost, gouache on paper, 12×11
someone should really tell her, gouache on paper, 12×11
hell is reassuring, gouache on paper, 12×11
I’ve added them to the website so you can check price and availability if you’re interested.
Be sure to take a look at my paintings in person if you’re ever in New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Monroe, or Shreveport.
