"Homeless"

See this gentleman almost every time I go to the grocery store. He and his worldly possessions in his grocery cart take up residence on a bus stop bench just across the street from where I shop. Stopped one day to ask if he minded if I took his photo explaining that I was a painter and would be interested in painting him. He was so accommodating and couldn't wait to talk about art with me.
Hoping this will be juried into the national OPA show here this coming spring.

"Homeward Bound"

Heading home at the end of the day results in an eager sprint! 

This will be one of my two entries into the National Oil Painters of America show held here in Dallas this coming May, 2016.
