Key #7


Just finished this small (8x6") oil painting brilliantly titled, "Key #7". This is my kind of title. To be honest, I did labor a little and try to come up with something clever but eventually I came to the conclusion that the painting is simply a study of an old vintage key on some weathered and beaten wood..it's about textures, design and the simple subject. Viola!
This will be sent to the Bowersock Gallery on cape Cod as part of a series of small still life paintngs I'm currently working on.

Well its a beautiful study of a key, Todd. And I'm right there with you on the titles :)

I always love the texture you get in your work! Another great example!

Todd, I love these little key paintings. I am doing a blog post on Keys to Success in painting and would love to use one of your paintings to illustrate it. I will of course credit you. Let me know.
