Morning Sunlight
The curtain on the right is a skirt with a pleated hemline. With a lot of manipulation of my lighting, I was able to simulate sunlight through a "window", using aluminum foil to control the direction of the light. This was a joy to paint!

Semper Fi No.3
16x16" Oil on Stretched Linen
I Googled "Marine Quotes" to find a title for this one. Let's face it. . . there is none better than "Semper Fi", which translates "Always Faithful". These three paintings are to honor the life and memory of such a marine.
I did find a website with many memorable quotes. http://www.usmc81.com/2009/01/marine-corps-quotes/ One of my favorites: "To observe a marine is inspirational. To be a marine is exceptional."
