After it was pointed out to me that my all the photographs of my paintings looked yellow, I adjusted the white balance in my camera and took the photo below. It is much more representative of the actual painting than any of the other photos.

Light at the end of the tunnel...
I am getting close to being able to call this painting finished. I still have a couple of hours worth of work to do on it, but it has to dry before I can add those finishing touches.

I visited a gallery today that had expressed interest in my paintings. I took 3 of my paintings, my portfolio and a CD with images of about 20 of my paintings. They asked me to bring some of the paintings from the portfolio in, and talked about doing a show with one other artist in the fall. I will post updates periodically as I have new information to report.
Here's the progress today on my latest painting....

New Painting in Progress
Here's the beginning of a new painting. It is 20" x 16" oil on canvas. I purchased the reference photo from Anna, a Russian amateur photographer who lives in Israel.

Work after work...
Lots more to do on this one, but I'm calling it a night since I have to get up early and go back to
work in the morning.

Change of pace...
I needed a little break before doing the last in the series of Sushi paintings. Here's the start of a little teacup, saucer and spoon. It's 7" x 5" oil on linen on birch.

More progress on Sushi #4
After work, I was able to paint for about an hour and a half. It's a great way to relax after a 12 hour shift in the ICU.

Sushi #3
Here's the progress photo of Sushi #3. I still have about 2 more hours worth of work to go before I can call this one finished. This was my first attempt at using this particular kind of support. It is supposed to be very nice to work on. I mess up while toning it and mixed burnt umber with quick-drying white and spread it with a palette knife. I am very unhappy with the results and will certainly not do that again.
