Maquette groups, a painting, & a list of music





1st Photo is of a group of maquettes that I would like to make more of they are mixed media on wood forms dimensions variable.  The 2nd Photo is of a group of maquettes that I am working on and may make into wood forms but are right now made of mixed media on cardboard & paperboard.  The 3rd Photo is of a new painting on paper I am working on, that I happen to enjoy right now it is mixed media on paper.

And here is my list of music from the other night while working on these works and contemplating the collaborations between Phil (SIKE) Shaffer & myself.

OH, my these are small paintings



So these two paintings are super small for me no side over 12".
The image of the one on top is finished but still needs a title.
The image of the one on the bottom is not finished but does have a working title Victorian Dinosaurs.
 I also have two more of these small paintings that at this time are very early in the works.
All of these will be on view at the UCP open studio's on the weekend of May 18-19, my studio is in the Town Pavilion Building at 1100 Walnut St. Kansas City MO, for more information about the open studio's go to www.charlottestreet.org or www.urbanculturestudioresidents.wordpress.com.
