Clippers

10"x8" oil on canvas. These clippers have posed for me several times. Actually, not these exact clippers. You see, I go through a lot of clippers. Either through just wearing them out (sharping them down to nothing or breaking the spring) or somebody (I'm not naming names) accidentally dropping them into the garbage. I am still a little ticked off by that last one. Counting to ten and moving on... I keep forgetting to tell you that if you would like to see some of my larger pieces in person, I have several on display at The Sycamore Gallery. I think it is about nine or ten pieces, my paint fume addled brain can't remember at the moment. It is quite a compliment actually, because the gallery owner, Scott Garland, is an artist himself and quite the salesman—he has sold several of my paintings and it can't be because somebody actually liked them. Here is the gallery's contact info: The Sycamore Gallery, 116 East Lemon Avenue, Old Town Monrovia, CA 91016 / (626) 357-6200 / www.thesycamoregallery.com. Scott is a great guy and fun to talk to, so drop by and have a chat and see some beautiful art.
