Well, It's been a while since I've painted, but I've jumped back in and here's Chapo.

My grandchildren are an endless inspiration for me. This is a portrait of Clementine. I also paint portraits on commission. You can email me at jnostrant@cox.net for more information.

The horse in the painting is named Easy. She was "put down" a few months ago because of old age and injuries. She was a sweet, gentle horse and provided my grandchildren with their first riding lessons.

I painted clouds building up over the mountains. They kept changing, but it was fun to paint from real life rather than a photo.
