RE: Artist on BOARD
another addition. This is from Idaho at Redfish Lake. I personally took the reference photos and did this piece as a gift for our Niece and her husband about a year ago

RE: Artist on BOARD
My newest painting. This one got on the front page of the Montgomery News, next town over from me. It will be good publicity for the upcoming show in which I am a participant. Always helpful.

Bugler's Holiday from 1995
This came up on YouTube only 6 months ago. My friend came across it and posted it. So, it’s me and my friends from 28 years ago. I am on the far left, playing the third part.

RE: Artist on BOARD
ready for another one? well, here is one I recently parted with...it is a satisfying thing to have people actually want to add my paintings to their collections. Better than sitting in my studio collecting dust and not have anyone looking at them for long stretches of time!And- maybe this will cool you off a little

RE: Artist on BOARD
today I have a piece from Ketchikan Alaska where there was this scene and we even saw some Salmon trying their best to swim up this very strong current. I love attempting to re create the raging white water, and sometimes I get it, and sometimes not so much!

RE: Artist on BOARD
A scene not too far from my home. This is a small switch house originally from the Pennsylvania RR, but the "myth" that has spread about it is that it was the Bridge tender's house, I have since found out otherwise. The PRR bought the Delaware & Raritan Canal and essentially put it out of business in the early 1930s. At its peak, the D&R canal did more commerce than the Erie Canal.

@bumblebee
High praise, there, mate, if I am right about who you are talking about in John Baeder! He’s actually a new favorite of mine. I definitely do not live in a vacuum. I learn from many other artists. It’s a matter of choosing what things I want to use and what I feel I should avoid. Thank you kindly, sir -
RE: Artist on BOARD
I seem to be in a productive stage this year. I have a clear idea of what I want to paint. This is not always a given, by the way. Just glad the juices are flowing. This one was from a photo I took, from the driver's seat of my Uncle's Buick. The passengers were quite panicked, but I assigned my uncle to hold the wheel so we were fine. The second picture is the photo I took those many years ago ( with a film camera, by the way). Then I decided to recreate it in a winter setting. Here are the pictures

RE: A little humour
It has been said that some dogs can understand up to 250 words. I’ve had several employees who could understand at least that many……..combined, though.

Elmar, here is the recording if you feel like listening to it. https://soundcloud.com/bigdub-3/07-christmas-day-in-the?si=85561cd1af7440b98a25acaf3c4a8893&utm -

@barliman2001
I expect this will possibly not be good either, but for what it’s worth, here is my two cents.
I have played a marching French horn when needed. It has a very horn like sound ( duh). Anyway, I can share a recording where I was playing that part. The advantage for me, at least, was that a trumpet mp can be used interchangeably and the fingerings are exactly like trumpet. It reads the French horn part as well. -
RE: Artist on BOARD
Last Sunday, beautiful sunny, warm day in my neck of the woods, wife and I took a drive into PA specifically for this barn. A long time favorite of mine in Solebury Township, Bucks County. There are so many stone buildings in Pa that I truly admire. Here is the finished piece.

RE: Vintage Horn Eye Candy
@SSmith1226
TMI here…..we are digressing, don’t we think?
Not critiquing his playing or the other Rockwell of the red haired boy practicing……
I'm sorry, Steve, but you are off the case. More focused agents will be called upon shortly…….
Seriously, though, I think we can narrow it down, maybe. -
RE: Vintage Horn Eye Candy
This is a painting by Norman Rockwell from 1931. Given his reputation of being extremely accurate with his details, I was wondering if anyone here who knows much more than I do could identify what the horn is that is being played here.
