7th of 9 paintings in my history series about my family. We were part of an exodus from the coal mining area of Virginia.This painting is based on a family photo of relatives that I never met - John and Sarah Steelman. It's apparent to me that this is a close knit, loving family. The colors reflect than as well as the starkness of lives in Appalachia. There are multiple layers of acrylic-toned gesso, then acrylic, then oils. Not necessarily in the order in all sections of the painting.

I welcome offers. Price includes delivery. For local collectors (Cincinnati, Ohio, USA), I can hand-deliver the item, if you like. My work uses texture and color. For oil paintings, the canvas is usually rough weave stretched over a frame hand-made by me. Application with putty & palette knives, and occasional brush work enhances texture. Colors are directly from the tube or with minimal mixing with other oil colors. None are casually made. All live in a space and most paintings take months/yrs to create. I studied drawing & painting under John Stewart, then painting under the mentorship of Frank Herrmann. Frank changed the way I thought about painting. Merlene Schain was an informal mentor, encouraging me. Born in a town (in Virginia) of 6 families, we moved to Cincinnati, Ohio when I was still in a stroller (see me in A Day in the Park). First memories include love of color. Raised by a single mom, I grew up with 1 sister (now deceased) and 1 brother, plus a bazillion relatives. Married to the best person ever for about 35 yrs, I have 4 children, each special of course. Family is the best part of my life.
