This painting is one that left me the minute it was dry and I don't know where it is exactly now. The whole thing is a painting not just the painting in the painting.

Recent south swell damage.

Work in progress.

Final painting from beginning painting 123 and student artist reviewing. He stayed up all night and still didn't finish his painting directly overhead. Good class overall though.

Friends and family with work of Dennis Gallagher.

Friends in high places... the second half is of particular interest.

Underpainting (detail) of "Road to Bolinas". I like this stage and will negotiate it's preservation as the painting grows.

Pool skating circa 1981, this is my pool and me in it.

Coffee and Flowers from 2003 or 4. This was painted from a bad photo where there was some flattening of contrast and enhancing of blacks. Nothing was staged and the cup of flowers, the cup I made as well as this painting.

Bad photo of a good painting by me. It is fairly large 40 x 60 ish.

Art 123 beginning Painting, this student completed this from start to end without going over anything more than twice. I remember her doing it all at once.

A good student in my beginning painting at University of Hawaii. There are always more than a few good ones. She is painting from her computer screen. This was our final painting.
