Harvard Professor Caricature-Nostaligia!


Retired Harvard Professor/Caricature Art Illustration

Beautifully framed: Caricature of Professor

My clients come up with some very original ideas...
This gentlemen sent me a decade-old photo as coordinator of graduation ceremonies at Harvard. Now a retired Harvard Professor, he wanted this done as an anniversary gift to his wife, who loved the photo and now the drawing.
Such originality. Love the hair!

Client review: "Thank you for the wonderful job you did on the caricature.
It was a perfect anniversary prezzie for my wonderful wife."

Enjoy, Eileen

Pastel Thirteen

Painting #185/"Pastel Thirteen"/Original Pastel painting 10"X8"
On archival paper.

Contact artist to place bid

This week, I revisited some still life themes I had explored earlier in this blog (the former billiard ball series was painted in oil).
The discipline of blogging takes time and patience, but I have found the practice well worth the while for many reasons. One of them is having an organized record of one's progress; another is to contemplate the direction of the body of work.
I've been experiencing somewhat of a rebirth, as I experiment, again, with some familiar media and research some of the great artists from the past whom I admire.

The timepiece in this painting seems to be floating, fleeting, unanchored; but isn't that, after all, the essence of time?

"Do not worry about your originality. You could not get rid of it even if you wanted to."
-Robert Henri

This original pastel landscape is
in celebration of the life of a dear man

whose tracks shall forever remain on
the lives and in the hearts of those he leaves behind.
