Star Magazine Cover


This Eagle in flight was completed this morning at 2am. Afraid that it wouldn't dry ontime, I used drying medium mixed in my paint and baked it under two clip lamps with close supervision of course when it is done. This allows me to use my oils and still be able to have quick turnarounds.

Hi Allen,
I've been so nuts...but checked in on your blog to see what's up. I totally know the finishing at 2am with clip lamps deal! It's one of the things I'm best at too, pushing the deadline to the limit. I like the piece alot, and think it makes a fine cover. Very nice! Like your pics of Puerto Rico too. Glad you are bloggin! nice to peak in on and see what's happenin. Hi to all back in KC...I'm loving the desert and totally feel at home. Talk to you again soon.
