From a Picture to a Project

I have been forcing Merrick to "model" for me in various poses to use in my paintings. Last Wednesday, I made him ride his bike across the end of my driveway. I then made the bike shot into "twin" Merricks leaving the beach after a great day of fishing.

This piece measures 12 x 24 inches. The next project? Merrick at the seashore waiting to surf. Stay tuned.
