Detail of a nearly completed underpainting. (Raw Umber and Flake White). Getting more doll like; not sure I like this.

Blackberry Morning

Charming new song "Blackberry Morning" from my twin brother Pat Walsh. Pat and I picked blackberries on summer mornings to sell door-to-door when we were boys and not old enough to mow lawns.

The Duke Endowment recently commissioned two architectural paintings. This is how I start: custom stretchers from Canada, oil primed linen from Belgium.
