Stink Robo Bug
I have a feeling that each year there is more and more of stink bugs.
They are the reason why we have so many pesticides on our food. The more
of them you can destroy the fewer you will have to worry about next
summer. The good thing is that the stink bugs are edible and the bad
thing is, it will take several years for our birds to realize this.

Hermione and Sparrow
Here is Hermione from Harry Potter with abstracted
hair. I started my painting with light sketch and masking fluid. The fluid has to be completely dry before painting so I waited for a while and painted this portrait in my head only. For the first wet wash I carefully put colors next to each other and
let them mix on the paper. To do so I used four colors: phthalo blue, yellow
ocher, burned umber, burned sienna and little bit of vermilion red. My black
was achieved by mixing blue and umber and my white is a preserved color of the paper. The time lapse of this painting process is on YouTube
And here is an abstracted pumpkin and a little
sparrow. I was visiting a local farm recently and I
saw these vigorous birds everywhere. They are not very beautiful but because of
their cheerful character I like them a lot.
Now some of my prints are available on Fine Art America

Lynx
Here is my lynx on the abstract background. Not too many
years ago, I would never expect me do the abstract painting and be happy with
it. The abstract like this can be created in just a few moments. We can call it
beautiful or ugly depending on our mood and time of the day. When I'm looking
back at my paintings, I can see that they are rather neat and well planed. I'd
like to add more spontaneity to my paintings. I wonder if loosening my style will
lead me to something good.
I videotaped the painting process. You can see it on YouTube

Kingfisher
This is my interpretation of Kingfisher, beautifully colorful hunter. Once, I saw this bird fishing at Chesapeake Bay. I can't forget this one of a kind experience and from that time I want to see more.
... and I want peace, PEACE on the earth. Too many bad things happening in the world right now

Some Artists Fly with Music
A vocalist amid the crowd is like a difference between Nightingale's
and Sparrow's chirp and a passionate dancer among us is like a race
horse surrounded by donkeys.
Lets enjoy talents.
