My First Post

This is it. My first Blog. I hope to post a diary of sorts about my daily struggle to create paintings and other artworks. Maybe this will help the world understand the creative process that shapes me as an artist. Constructive criticism is appreciated - even desired.

Well, today is Tuesday and I'm working with egg tempera on gesso wood panel. I usually paint with oils on PVC panels so this is something different. I had done a couple of Icons earlier and now want to try impressionist work using egg tempera on wood panel. It's a major departure from oils and egg tempera is sometimes difficult to work with. Very time consuming (and egg consuming as well). I'll post some photos of some of my work as I go along.
