8 x 10" oil on 1"-hardwood panel
Nothing truly twisted or sinister--just an old tool my father used in the yard in the days before weedeaters. I liked the "twist" of the shadow.

- I am a recovering illustrator, slowly transitioning to painting. Due to book deadlines, painting time is still a luxury; but what was once a diversion now seems essential. I try to do some self-generated work at least once a week.

Connie, I didn't even THINK of 'sinister' until I read your comment! It's so beautifully painted. I think it's my favorite so far, though I like all your pieces!
Hi, Kelley, and thanks! Your blog looks beautiful, too. After flailing away at illustration for many years and feeling rather stale, I can't tell you how excited I am to be doing these little personal paintings and discovering all the other wonderful painters out there. It is a breath of fresh air. I begin to imagine that with practice I might even become a half-decent painter someday. Selling them is the icing on the cake!
You are incredible talented!
Watching your work is cool!
