Out for a Walk

"Dining Alfresco," 24"h x 20"w, oil

After working on sketches for a portrait commission all morning today ... and lots of work yesterday ... I needed a break. Unless I'm painting, I go a bit nuts.

So, Randy and I went for a good long walk. It helped. Different muscles employed. Different view.

And, since I wasn't painting to create anything new for you to see ... Why not put up some of my paintings depicting people out for a walk? Here are a few of my "strollers."

Momentarily, we're going out to the movies ... to see "The Artist." Doing something different twice in one day.
