westminster2a.jpg
One of the first oil paintings I ever made, back in I think around
1982, after a family trip to England (but it may be from a couple of
years later). I had sketched one of the rose windows in Westminster Abbey
while attending an evening organ concert there. Later, I used my sketch
and a picture-book photo of the cathedral interior to make the painting.
jet2a.jpg
One of my early oil paintings, done in 1985 when I was in
high school, this one is of a jet aircraft that I had been designing
on a CAD system at NASA Langley Research Center as part of an Explorer
Scout program in aerodynamics. I wanted to see what it would look like
as more than just a line drawing on a computer terminal.
christmas2a.jpg
Another oil painting from 1985, because I liked the Christmas tree
and wanted to capture that moment in time. Painted live, in the
living room.
swans2a.jpg
This is the last painting I did in an art class at Duke University
1st semester of my Sophomore year, in 1987, under the tutelage of
Vernon Pratt. By that time I had moved from a detailed style to a
looser, quicker style. I think it was the best painting I made that
year.

costarica.gif
An oil painting I made for my mother. This one is a copy of a work
my parents liked very much which they found in the Contemporary Art
Museum in San Jose, Costa Rica. The artist who painted the original
is the Costa Rican artist Téadorico Quiras. (682KB)
costarica2a.jpg
This is another photo of the painting from Costa Rica, which I took
with my cell phone, as the one above had been taken much earlier and
with a much lower-resolution digital camera.
smithfield.gif
My pen-and-ink drawing for the 1996 Smithfield Calendar. This drawing
is of the Julius D. Gwaltney House, 304 S. Church St., Smithfield, VA, built
in 1901 and called the ``most photographed house in Smithfield.''
