Christopher Aponte from a Mark Daily class at Disney.



This was the initial painting of Laura Sellers reading.

Kevyn Wallace. A true gem of a human being who left us way to soon. I thought I didn't have this painting anymore--but I was wrong. Painted alongside the brilliant Sunny Apinchapong in his studio. RIP, brother Kevyn.





Scottsdale Artist School Open Studio. I took Ray Roberts and Mark Daily back to back (this was around 1999-2000-ish). Mark is still one of my all time favorite painters. Too smart for his own good.


A couple of self portraits (I try to paint the night before my class). 

This is the only guy stupid enough to pose for me.
