Great Video

I pulled this off a Blog I frequent, Underpaintings a forum by artist Mattew Innis. 

 This is one of 4 videos By Scott Burdick that explore the recent movment back to representational art.

Very enjoyable.

A Few Paintings

I have a lot of framing to catch up on!!

Actually I am posting this because I haven't taken any photos of my paintings or frames,

so its my latest stall tactic, enjoy

Couple of Odd projects

I have been painting and framing a lot but I have been a little slow in taking photos. New paintings should be up by the first of next week.

I thought I would show a few of the other projects I had fun creating recently.  

This top project is a donation to the Festival of the Trees in December. Proceeds from this go to Primary Children's Hospital. The table will stand next to a donated tree with gifts on it and the box sits on top of the table. The box holds testimonies of Jesus Christ from all the Primary children in our neighborhood. A nice lady around the block gave me a plate of brownies for  helping out. It was well worth it.

Below is another project I did, a wedding cake.

Soon you will see a new business pop up:

"Cakes by Rett"

Not!!!

I have much more respect for cake decorators now.
