| I've started a multi-part piece in gouache that will feature a Thanksgiving dinner. I'm enjoying that this frame of the piece is turning into an ode to fall colors... |

| Saw a call for a show of "Self Portrait As Rock Stars" at a gallery in Baltimore, and it prompted me to make this: |
| "Self Portrait with Michael Jackson's Jacket, Hair and Nose, Circa 1985". Pencil on Paper, 14x11", 2010. |
 |
| Obviously, it's been forever since I've given any studio updates. So I wanted to post a couple in-progress photos of a recent drawing.. |

| I'm back to oil painting, after a pretty long hiatus of just drawing. So I'm pretty excited to be started on this new series of paintings of beauty queens. The First one I've started is Miss North America. You can see how much I sometimes need to go back and change things even after they're well underway. In this one, the face was not working at all, and I got Emily to model her hand for me so I could find a pose that worked... Here's some of the in-progress shots: |

| I've started on a new series of inkwash drawings of bearded men of various ethnicities and eras. I like the idea of lumping together widely varied cultures and ethnicities for something that has little universal value between them. It brings up interesting questions about the concepts of multi-culturalism and diversity. Anyhow, here's a couple of the drawings taking shape... |
