This one falls more on the illustration side of things. I wanted to paint a simple painting of a kid running with zero background detail and was happy with how this turned out . . . then I added a cape to the kid and that made the painting work for me even more, adding a bit of a story to the piece.

Used an old 1908 public domain photo titled "Portrait of Mrs. White" by Clarence H. White as the reference photo for this painting. I liked the look of the original roughed-in painting---which reminded me of an old french poster---so I kept the blue outlining and left out any detail work.

Yet another coffee cup painting. I can't get away from it. I guess it's a somewhat popular motif among the art-loving world, and I'm pretty much on board with it as well.
