Afternoon at the Diner, the big painting is 24”x24”, the small study is at 10”x10”. I will often create a small study painting to work out composition, color, value contrast and detail before starting the big painting.

Sound sample of the soprano dulcimer I built. It has 15” scale, englemann spruce top, walnut side & back.
, mandolin style bracing and bridge. It has that sweet dulcimer tone yet loud enough to be heard in a bluegrass jam. My best soprano yet! #dulcimer
