I've just started a new series on gardens. This is my first one in progress, and I think I'll put a collection on my web-site, http://www.cjmyersfineart.com/, titled "Gardens and Vineyards".

revised painting

I recently revisited a painting that I had done a couple of years ago. The house and background didn't work for me, so I added a field and farm houses in the background instead and I like it much better. What do you think?

Hungry "I"

This is a 12" x 12" pastel painting that I had done a few years ago. A very good, long-time friend really liked it. She said her father had taken her to the Hungry "I" in San Francisco when she was 13 years old, and that KGO had a set-up live in the Hungry "I" which started the early days of talk radio. At the time I first painted it, I made a print for her and have just now finally finished another painting from the same reference photo. It is in the mail.....
