Oil Paintings
| I like to paint. I've been doing it for a long time, About forty years give or take a year or so. All though I haven't had much formal school My mother, Betty Ann LoBello, who was an accomplished Portrait artist during the late 50s through out the 60s, taught and encouraged me to explore oil paints, as far back as I could remember. So inspired by my mom and the techniques of artist such as Salvador Dali, Roger Dean, Edward Hopper, Norman Rockwell, Andrew Wyeth Max Fleischer, R. Crumb and a few others.......This is where I get a lot of my inspiration from. Please feel free to browse around and let me know what you think. Thank you |

came from but it is a totally spontaneous painting, the subject
was totally unplanned before I started.

"Buoy No#5"
I think I was a bit inspired by some Japanese art I saw at an exhibit a few weeks
earlier all though it still has a lot of western culture
I was trying to capture the transparency of light and water .... This is an acrylic
on canvas and measures 24"x20"
and is now in the Gerald Gleason collection
