MLK 12 x 24

Oil on Oak board

Martin Luther King portrait was inspired by the 1963 King speech "Strength of Love"

Excerpt from speech
Like an unchecked cancer, hate corrodes the personality and eats away its vital unity. Hate destroys a man's sense of values and his objectivity. It causes him to describe the beautiful as ugly and the ugly as beautiful, and to confuse the true with the false and the false with the true.

Martin Luther King, Jr., Strength to Love, 1963.

11 x 14 Teddy Bear (NFS)

Teddy Bear is 11 x 14, oil on linen.

The teddy bear in this painting belongs to a family member, who has requested to remain nameless.

The bear is a treasured possession and greatly cared for. His name is Bear and he s three years old.

I was drawn to this creature because of his war-marks, nappy coat, which was once furry, and his limp demeanor. Bear has been utilized, he has performed his duties well and it shows.

My goal in this painting was to give Bear sculptural weight, capture his look and the painting served as an exercise in articulating drapery.

Teddy Bear is not for sale but I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed painting it.
