James River Bridge work in progress

 I started this painting about a year ago and pulled it out today to pick up where I left off. Good Lord a lot has changed. I had to go over a LOT of the old details and simplify areas. I have a painting similar to this one that I will probably never finish for personal reasons, but this one is from a happier time in my life. This bridge will be finished before the year is over, and will be a part of my Richmond painting collection. Sorry for the glare.

Clocktower Realty Group Biggie mural

 The owner of Clocktower Realty Group, Rhonda Howlett, is high energy, positive, and will motivate the living fuck out of you. She's a huge fan of hip hop and it's the line from Juicy that Biggie spouts, "it was all a dream.." where the motivation to not only dream big, but make epic shit happen, inspired her to start Clocktower Realty. 

If you're in Richmond, VA and would like to stop in and see the mural, give her a call. Great agents, positive energy...

VA Landscape progress painting

 This is a progress painting of another shed out in the Blue Ridge foothills. Unfortunately, I didn't realize I positioned the camera too low, and the quality was defaulted to the lowest setting. So, instead of filming all the way through, I decided to post the video of my progress thus far, and just post the photos of the painting once I'm finished and it is varnished.

Dairy Queen - Oil & Soil

 Dairy Queen - 30"x30" - mixed media (soil and oil) - 2020 (sold)

This old cow was up on the mountain in the Blue Ridge Foothills. It was a cold morning, and fog was coming off the base of the hills below. The light was hitting her as she stared at me, and I was able to capture the most amazing photograph of her. She came up to me and let me touch her, and then moseyed off to her little group. The soil in the painting is from the area where she was standing, and it's a strong possibility that the soil contains a healthy amount of cow shit. She was recently sold to a private collector in Richmond. 

Dairy Queen - Work in progress

 I will post the final image of Dairy Queen tomorrow. Basically all that was left to do on her was touchups on the fence, the soil from the mountain, and enhancing her.

 Here's the block in stage of the cow, as well as the fence in the background. 

Black History Month

 Yes, we are honoring Black History Month at John Price Art, but unlike the public education system we actually honor it all year long. Why? Because BLM... Black Lives Matter. We're running some specials and we'd love for you to check them out.

Dairy Queen - work in progress

 Background is finished (for the most part). I've begun layering in the dirt to the mountain and the big brown blob is where the cow is going to be. The area where the trees are closest, will have fog around it and a fence in front.
