"Boogie" - 5" x 7" - oil
Sold
Currently we're in New Jersey visiting friends and family. Since I'm literally out of my element I thought that it would be appropriate to post a painting that isn't "the norm" for me. As if I don't have enough to do. This painting is my contribution to the Different Strokes from Different Folks challenge. It's nice to step out of your comfort zone every now and then even if that means getting out of the state or taking on an unfamiliar subject. Once I'm back home I'll post some of the pieces that I shipped earlier this week to Virginia.

Great painting, Steven. Beautiful colors and the addition of the clouds is a very nice touch. Plus I really like the texture of the sky.
Steven, I love your work.
Look who's showing off now. Seriously, this is a great painting and it still has that recognizable Walker style. Great work as always.
Steven, just gorgeous! Has the feeling of a classic book illustration from way back.
hi there Edward, thanks for the kudos. I thought that the clouds were needed in order for the piece to keep my interest.
Thank you MaryAnn!
Hi there Douglas, I had planned on skipping this weeks challenge until I saw yours. So I got out of my sick bed and went to work.
Hey there Garriott! That's exactly the look I was going for. I have tons of clippings from old illustration annuals that inspire me.
Breathtaking! Safe travels,
Liz
LOVE LOVE LOVE your work Steven! Found your blog from Chris Beck's blog, and so glad I did - she nominated you for a Blog Award!!! Check it out! www.chrisbeckstudio.blogspot.com
Thanks Liz, the trip back gave me plenty of reference for future paintings.
Hi there Jennifer, Chris emailed me informing me of the award. I too am glad that you found me and I hope that you enjoy future works. Have a good one.
