My painting for the current Krab Jab Studio Faerie ll Show , opening February 8th

Erwin Madrid's delightful piece has an actual line in it that helps lead the eye. But there are many driving lines here.

Thom Tennery...foreground, middle ground, background. Gorgeous.

Noelle Triaureau's excellent concept piece is side-to-side, top-to-bottom, front-to-back designed to flesh out the whole scene.

Ruan Jia's skill at keeping the values in a tight range give us fantastic depth into this world.

I love the way PJ Lynch controls the light to an exquisite degree.

Dorje Bellbrook turns a commonplace landscape into a killer piece by breaking up similar shapes and going another step beyond.

Matti Martinnen's crop on the giant is perfect. We don't need to see the whole thing, we need to feel the scale.

Craig Mullins went over the top with the palette on this one and still controlled how we see it. Just beautiful.

Neil Campbell Ross allows us to feel the depth of the piece with an intriguing pov. We feel small and lost. Dead on.

The formidable Craig Mullins again, telling us through value and color exactly where and when to look.

Without the brushwork and washes, this painting of mine would suffer from a lack of texture interest.
