This 5x7 oil on masonite was inspired by a Mexican bowl I had on the shelf.

The Road Sign

Road 950 East

This painting is for sale on eBay

This little 5x7 on canvas was done up the road from where my studio is in rural Indiana. It's a plein air work that reflects a subtle part of rural life -- the roads and fields all look the same and people look for the crooked or bent road sign to know where their turn is. Or at night, it's only the reflection of the green road sign that tells them their turn is coming up along a solid wall of corn.
