"A Friendly Face"

I couldn't resist painting this
fellow who had such a great
expression.

The painting is a watercolor

"Darryl"

Our good friend Darryl
occasionally plays for us and
I hoped in this sketch to
capture the intensity with
which he plays.

"I Love Cats"

I was impressed with the size
of the cat. He obviously rules
in that household.

Like a soldier preparing

The guitarist is Darryl Denning playing:
Prelude #3 by Heitor Villa-Lobos, a selection from
Darryl's CD: Classical Guitar Artistry.
"Andy"

He was a wonderful
model, the pose  
repeated over several
hours. I don't know his
real name. Somehow
"Andy" seemed right.

"Troubador"

He played and sang for us
all morning as he posed in
Elizabethan garb. An
entertaining morning.
