My favorite little painting ...

Prophet St. Elijah
T. Nelson
2016

I was working on a series of little items for the Etsy shop, but didn't get many finished.  My Elijah turned out to be my favorite.  I had some blank panels - little 4"x6" wood panels from a craft store - which I gessoed years ago, I finally got around to painting them.  Sometime ago, in the early 1990's, I did small things like this for a design studio/antiques dealer - mostly using duck and ostrich eggs. I still had my tracings to work these out. They retailed from $125.

I like this one too:

S. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross

T. Nelson
2016

I updated the art blog accordingly, and I'll be updating Etsy soon.
