The Drum Room



Again, I am drawn to the Kansas City of the last century-I always remember a former teacher,who was classical trained, stressing-rules are made to be broken. The light pole in the center? I think it makes an interesting abstraction with the black line on the left side. Does it work? That is for the viewer to decide.

My Portrait of a brother and sister

Ocassionally I do portraits, and have recently completed this painting from a photograph taken by their father. I think the back lighting is effective and gives a sense of time and place.
