One of my favorite types of art Dad created were the "special projects" he would do for people. It might be a gift, or a favor to help someone out, or a commissioned portrait, or even something that was just for the fun of it. In my opinion, these pieces give more insight into my Dad more than his "professional" pieces ever could.
We have a lot more of these images I will be adding over the next few months. If you have any personal pieces that Dad did for you, I would love to see them! If you don't want them published, that is totally fine, but either way, we love seeing everything Dad did for others.
CLICK THE IMAGES for more description and some "behind the scenes" looks at the story behind them, reference shots,
and other interesting facts and stories about some of these paintings. Not all paintings are clickable.

Dad loved to golf, and he loved to paint. And he loved to paint about golf! Most of his golf paintings were done to be auctioned off at Dakota Dunes Country Club where we lived and where Dad loved to golf. More of these will be added in the coming months along with the stories behind them.
