Space Man Sam postcard

                                                                              16x20  oil

                This was the subject of the worldwide paint out. It is a post card taped to the wall. It is a still life subject. We can watch Jon Hardesty paint and paint along. This is the painting after 6 hours. I know, what!

Overcast by the river

                                                                      4x6 oil

                         Over cast day by the over flow of the Elm fork of the Trinity river.

Portrait sketchings

                                              Each is  3x3 oil

                            Just sketching round and getting a little gesture in the pose.

Rebekah

                                                                   12x16 oil

                        This is for the world wide painters on Saturday mornings. It's Jon's sister, and I might have spelled her name wrong. I sketched out the head and started painting and realized I had made it smaller than I wanted. I ment to just do the face and not the head and shoulders. These portraits are above my talents, but I have to do hundreds more, one at a time.

Pile of junk

                                                                   6x8 oil

                                   Pile of junk in a field out by Justin, TX.

Petit silo

                                                       6x8 oil

                           Don't know what for sure this mini silo is. There were a few of them around. There's a thin door slot, but it seems too narrow for a cow to put his head in to.

Another field

                                                               6x8 oil

                              Why the flowers like to grow on one side of a fence.Maybe the cattle like to eat them on their side.
