Awesome Brennon

Brennon, on 2/2/2011.  Three-color chalk on toned charcoal paper.

Our grandson Brennon is one of the sweetest guys you'll ever meet.  He played football for a season but loves to wrestle most of all.  He's great at asking questions and being interested in other people.  This drawing was a birthday gift for his 12th bd.  He is now 14 and I'm shocked at how tall he has gotten and how his voice has changed.  (We haven't seen him in 2 years because of our mission.  He didn't keep his promise to not grow while we were gone.)

Here are some quick still life paintings I did at a three-day workshop in Midway, UT.   I do "people" so often that it was refreshing to do a still life, which is nice because it stays "still" for the entire painting.
