Redlands pick up.



Click Here to Bid.

Hello Friends and family! I'm back! Adventures, adventures! I went to Van Nuys, California for a one-week Portrait painting workshop with Sean Cheetham. It was awesome, learned a lot and made more good friends. Since the workshop, I've been painting and now have a small collection in my studio, but I haven't been able to photograph any of it, the sky has an orange glow from the California fires and ash and makes my paintings look colorless. So as soon as the sky clears I'll share my paintings with you.

I couldn't take it; I had to go out to draw, so I went to Redlands again and found this nice site. It was fun to draw but I shouldn't have gone out there because my eyes got itchy, I started getting a headache and the sky was really orange. The smell of ash was strong, I probably inhaled a lot of stuff. Anyways, this is what came of it. I'm happy with the piece.

This looks like an illustration for a John Steinbeck novel. Very nice... Clifford
