Three hours long pose from Jennifer's workshop. She was very beautifully posed that night I was very much inspired.

Palos Verdes.........20"x 24"........oil on canvas...2005

Couple of friends took me to this area of Palos Verdes Estate. It was actually a clear day. I took a shot, thought about it for a while, and decided to paint this version of sunset with some clouds.

Self Portrait........20"x 16".........oil on canvas...2005

I painted this portrait at the same time I painted the other one called "Hiker"
I have refine this one more than the "Hiker".
I decided use photo instead of using mirror. The mirror will flip the image
and not see as other person will see me.

Marrissa "The Goddess of Forrest"..........20"x 16"............oil on canvas..2006

This piece was three hours long pose at the Jennifer's Los Feliz Workshop. I can't remember if it was Jennifer or Marrissa made that head piece but it reminded of some sort of Goddess of the nature so the title goes.

Larry Garland....... 20"X 16" .......... oil on canvas 2006

Portrait of my friend Scott's dad. We were up at his ranch in Lonepine and he set for me while having his cocktail.

I did a two hours study first and did this finished one from photo and sketch.

This canyon in near Altadena & Pasadena area. Again, this canyon is a another beautiful place to hike to.

Honeymoon... 60"x 48"... oil on canvas 1994

Portrait of my sister when she got married and she is wearing traditional Korean custom and color of the bride which is magenta and lime green.

Maj. Gen. Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson ...10"x 8" ...oil on board 2006

Read a book by Frank E. Vandiver called Mighty Stonewall. I've painted this portrait of him from the picture that was taken two weeks before his death. One of the legendary general of confederate army that Lee couldn't do without until his death in May of 1863. Shot by his own man during reconaissance stroll with his staff in the cover of darkness at Chancellorsville he was mortally wounded and died 8 days later. It was very intrigue and fasinating read. I will be painting more of American Civil War images. What a amazing time that was.

Monrovia Creek Cyn. ....60" x 40" ....oil on linen 2005

This place is a magical place that I hike to a lot. It's about 5 minute drive from my home and feels like you are out nowhere. Very intimate place and at the end of the hike you get treated with 40ft. waterfall.

Malibu Creek Cyn. I ....50"x 50".... oil on linen 2004

Same subject as Malibu Cyn. II paiting but looking directly at it. Again I was experimenting with very soft palette. Behind this viewing direction there is about 40 to 50ft. cliff where people practice rock climbing.
