I finally got around to doing a portrait of my beloved Gus. It's an oil pastel on archival canvas board.

About Me
- halsart
- Coastal, New Hampshire, United States
- I'm an analog man in a digital world. I dream of what never was and never will be. I'm a retired Air Force Pilot, my pride and joy in the Air Force was piloting the B58, Hustler. I'm retired from my second career as a corporate accountant; no pride and joy there. I've been a painter for more than 35 years and yes I should be better than I am. Many of those years, I was working and commuting for 15 hours a day and only completed 3 or 4 paintings a year during that period. Since retiring my art has consumed me. My art is the product of a few college art courses, workshops too numerous to count, and many years of messing about. I am or have been a member of many art associations and am a past President of the Seacoast Artist Association of New Hampshire, I have received many awards from local and regional art shows, including a best in show, a peoples choice award, many best in medium and honorable mentions too numerous to note.
