Hello Everyone! I'm looking forward to getting to know more artists form around the globe. I am a realist who works in oil, pastel and pencil, I'm 27 and have been at it since I was two.
Feel free to check out my site and let me know what you think.

| Wow! I am also new and I am just awed by your work! I also paint in a realistic style and appreciate the trend away from abstraction. You can see my work at www.gallery-north.org, my name is Jonella Moore. Did you take a lot of formal traing? i.e. degree, etc? I have never had formal training and wish I had done so when I was young, but time flies... |

| Jonella, Thanks! I find your compliment very humbling. It's good to rub shoulders with fellow realists. In response to your question, I actually have no formal training or degree. I've been drawing since I was 2 and art has always been my passion. I checked out your site and admire the fact that you like to explore so many mediums, I'm looking forward to seeing more from you. |

Greetings Eric, Incredible painting and at your young age. I have a painting I may work on again - after years of it sitting around. If - you will share with me how you achieved the textured /realism of your peaches. Realism requires to much, for me now - but I can certainly appreciate allot of the work that is required. |

| Connie, I'd be happy to share with you how I paint peaches. Unfortunately, I don't really know how to "say" it, so I think I'll do a painting with peaches, take pictures of the progress and explain as I go along. It might take a while, I have a couple pieces in the cue that need to be finished first. I hope you don't mind. |

| This is my first try at a portrait. I find that oil gives me time to blend. This is "Noah's wife- day 41" 14 x 18 oil on canvas. I'm still working on her face contrast. |
