Ed Natiya at Foundry in Chinlee, Arizona

"Hi Ed! Hope you had a safe return to ABQ Saturday. Miss Julie and I made it back to DFW this morning. We had a great trip! Thanks so much for letting us participate in the process at the foundry. Including yourself, you have a great team there! I want to make sure you get a copy of the pictures from Saturday. There are some good ones, and we also managed to get a few shots of fortress rock from the rim Sunday on the way up to Monument Valley. Really interesting stuff. We traversed east a little from the antelope lookout point to get a side view of fortress. The tip that faces junction is lower than the top of fortress by a little more than I thought. Thanks again, Ben PS - I plan to send a few more pics and a link to the long walk story I mentioned."

Commissioned Painting

This is a preparatory sketch used to figure out roughly my composition for a commissioned painting measuring 52″ by 36″ vertically.  As you can see I figure out my measurements first and then begin to grid my design for transfer to my canvas.

I am working in acrylic here so speed is essential because of the quick drying time. You will notice I keep a spray bottle handy to spritz my canvas and my palette if necessary.
