Fishing Pals

This is a 16 by 20 hyper realistic, watercolor pencil painting on canvas done for a friend.  It was very frustrating to paint because the fish has so many dotes on it that it took be a long time to do.  It is difficult to get the kind of detail I want when there is so much detail.

This beautiful old dog died this year and the owner asked me to paint it for a xmas present.  It was surprisingly difficult because of the black in the picture.  I used a picture as well as looking at my own dog to finish the picture.  It is a 16 by 20 watercolor pencil painting on canvas done in a hyperrealism genre.

Hyperrealism the essence of Cullen

This is a watercolor pencil painting on canvas.   I take care of this young man two days a week.  He brings so much joy to my heart.I will give this painting to his mother for christmas.  I so enjoyed painting it.  As is normal for me to present this painting in a hyper realistic way.  It is indeed his essence.

Here is to you Chief Tommy!

This is a friend of mines little girl.  It took me a long time to paint because of all the detail in the piece,   Hyperrealism can be very tedious especially when there is a lot of detail.  I bartered this picture for a home cooked meal by the famous Tommy Fitzgerald.  Chief Tommy does the catering for the Legacy Trust Contest and I entered this year just to taste his cooking.  Well Art Prize was fun but I am looking forward to this meal more than the Art Prize process.  As is normal for me I continue to paint with water color pencils on canvas.

So Good

This is a 16X20 watercolor pencil painting done for Legacy Trust Competition.  I recently found out that the type of art I product is called Hyper Realistic. Never new it had a name.  Hyper Realism means to paint a picture so that it looks like a photo.  I was always upset when people would say they thought my paintings looked like photo's.  Little did I know it was a compliment.  Well this painting won the prize at the Legacy Trust.  Legacy will now sponsor me in the 2017 Art Prize in Grand Rapids Michigan.  Wow I am so surprised.   The name of the painting is "So Good."  I will be in the Devos Place down town Grand Rapids.
