Gangaji, 2001
For part of 2020 and 2021 I took a break from my series of large-scale portraits to paint a smaller (but no less developed) portrait of my teacher, Gangaji. Truly an honor. This portrait is now at the Gangaji Foundation in Ashland, Oregon.
Juneau Wildlife Portraits
In 2022, Chris and I spent a third of the year in Juneau. Away from my studio, I decided to paint small (10x8") and quick (3-day) acrylic paintings of wildlife, using Chris's (Christopher Grau's) photographs. I selected only the photographs where the animal is looking at the viewer.
Rock Faces
After I finished with the wildlife portraits, I had fun painting imaginary faces on rocks.
