My Dad's Paintings

These are just some of the paintings that my dad has done. Most are famous impressionist paintings that he did by looking at a small photo of the paintings. He amazes me at how he can draw and paint anything he can see. He did most of these paintings fairly recently. The painting with the bluebonnet field and a red barn was from a photograph my mom took. He liked the photo so much he decided to paint it. The whole painting was done with painting knives. The oldest painting he did here is the one with a gondola. It was done all with a painting knife as well. They are also all oil paintings. These paintings will probably look freshly painted for over 200 years or more because he used the techniques of the masters to make the paints last.
