New work

Three new paintings in oil. That’s right, I made the switch back to oils (but acrylics are not going to be completely out of the picture). Below: “Arthur’s Anticipation” is the short title for “President Garfield walks unknowingly into his grave while Mr. Chester A. Arthur thinks deeply about his future presidency […]
