Wednesday, 18 March 2009. Standing on the same porch are David and Sarah Hyre, the parents of Opie. The stone house was contracted by his father Jonathan Hyre,. With local stone masons. The Civil War interrupted the construction, but was resumed afterwards. Plagued with labor troubles, sentiment against him because of his stand during the war, and the lack of funds, Jonathan abandoned the project. This left the house an incomplete shell. My husbands brother Mike Hyre gave us the bronze metal. He said...

Thursday, 9 April 2009. Recollection of a Blueberry. Huckleberries at Dolly Sods, photographed by Gene Hyre. I had ran across this this photograph while looking for references for a landscape painting. I had been looking for it to show someone but it had been stashed away somewhere in my e-mails. This photo was taken by my Dad. In all seriousness, I found it interesting that my recollection of a blueberry was different from actual observation of a blueberry. My recollection of a blueberry :.

Monday, 2 March 2009. Just Another Quick Study. OK this is an unfinished study but thought I would show this to you before adding the final touches. During the time, I was more concerned with the skin around the eye area but planning to adjust the eye when the final section is added. It was an interesting technique and hopefully I will have the chance to work with it again. Is 4 X 4 inches ( 10.16 x 10.16cm ). Acrylic on Watercolour paper. Posted by Kim Bennett.

Kim Bennett's Studio: Portrait of Hooter
http://kimartuk.blogspot.com/2009/08/portrait-of-hooter.html
Thursday, 6 August 2009. Well there is a warning that artist should not paint a portrait of someone close to them. Oh well, so I decided to break the rules. There is still another layer of Umber to go but I decided to let it dry before working any further. This time I am working from a photograph. It is of a self portrait. We are worlds apart distantly but I like being around him because music sounds so much better when he's there. Posted by Kim Bennett. Labels: Work in progress. 7 August 2009 at 03:06.
