On this page I present my "people paintings" my humble attempts at paintings of portraits of people I felt compelled to paint. In oils and watercolours. Its a whimsical effort, and as my work evolves over time I suggest that they are much like my landscape paintings, they do not attempt to be old world classical style portraits, but rather, abstract renditions. Its who I am and these are my honest attempts.

People Paintings
Along the path of painting over 45+ years I have attempted to do the occasional one which includes people. Hung up on detail I was never able to feel confident enough to show my paintings to anyone. Not until recently when I decided to dispense detail and create my works in a more general and loose method. The faces are not important as the mood of the scene and the story that it tells. In this way I make the story of each painting available to all to identify with.
I hope you enjoy what I like to call my excursion on a parallel road to my landscape paintings. not a departure, just an excursion.
Enjoy!
