This painting entitled Have Hope began at a flea market where I found this hobo character in a box of old dolls. He has the most sad expression I've ever seen. Later that day I found this Bob Hope hand puppet and I knew right away that they would go together. My Tuesday morning class thought that the hobo was Red Skelton, but we later learned that he is Emmitt Kelly.

Welcome to my new blog (really my first blog). I have added this as a function in my new website in hopes of keeping everyone up to date with new paintings and I hope to also show the progress of the works as well as my inspiration for them.
