"Star Gazers"

A new painting that I finished in January 2012. This is the first in a series of painting that I will be doing from reference photos I shot last summer in South Dakota. These indians are father and son and I posed them at night in front of a camp fire as they gazed in wonder at the stars.

I will be exhibiting my new paintings at the San Bernardino County Museum Wildlife Art Show November 18-20 2011.

I will be exhibiting my new work at the 15th Annual Wildlife Art Show in San Dimas October 21.
