Painting of the Day
I started this web page on January 21, 2012. It was actually a new-year resolution. I have
seen several similar web pages, and since I have been interested in art for a long time, I figured it would
be fun to create and maintain my own site. The paintings shown on this page simply reflect my
personal taste, and are not meant to cover all artistic styles and currents. As you shall see, I especially like
portraits.
