Landscapes, Portraits and Still Lifes
Doug's work ranges from: carefully rendered miniatures to full-size portraits. From studied still-lifes layered with glazes (and hand-mulled paint) to plein air works painted on location and large textural landscapes created largely with palette knives and partly from memory. His intent is to use the broad latitude of the medium to best express the visual inspiration at hand.
Candid miniature portraits, oil on paper.
