Behind the Water Heater http://www.tolo.biz Behind the Water Heater Sat, 14 Jan 2012 01:59:06 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 Wind http://www.tolo.biz/2012/01/13/wind/ http://www.tolo.biz/2012/01/13/wind/#comments Sat, 14 Jan 2012 01:56:50 +0000 Todd http://www.tolo.biz/?p=694 This is the first oil painting I’ve completed in eight years. 30×40, oil on paper on birch ply. I have to say, it is nice to hold an actual painting in my hands again.

I hope to have an excuse to do more.

There are a number of detail shots on my website, but this is the largest full image I’ll post on the web.

Twice he’s given me an opportunity to paint something in a loose, energetic way. It’s really very fun! Shawn is between a financial rock and a medical hard place;proceeds from the sale opf prints of this image will go to offset some of his bills. You can place an order here.

It’s a cover for the eBook of Shawn Speakman’s novel “Song of the Fell Hammer.” Do him and me a favor:  find it on Amazon and buy it. Also, proceeds from the sale of prints will help to offset some of Shawn’s medical bills. Go here to place an order.
