The new idea has produced one finished piece. I am going to use a heavier paper for the white liner.
ALSO, in my painting career since 1997 I have never had a vision problem. Geezer mistake ,I signed this piece upside down.

People have asked if I am selling my paintings, Only the 8x10's as they are easy to mail. Paintings are ready to frame but measure to be sure the 8x10 is accurate some are a quarter inch off here and there.
email me
jgentle4#gmail.com

AUG 31. Three new pieces. I am selling the 8x10's for twohundred dollars each.

August painting and drawings
Posted on Aug 14, 2017 9:04 AM

I can't believe I havn't been keeping uptodate here. It has been months since I painted but the garden is offering up some tempting images.

This is a striking collection of colors and shapes.
