Hi everybody, Robert R. Norman here — AKA Roman the Painter. Wanted to give you a quick update for the 2026 season.
I've been hard at it applying for outdoor art festivals and creating new works for these shows. I jumped back into acrylics for a few days, but now I'm currently plowing through a bunch of new oil paintings with the addition of oil pastels. That's something new for me this year. I've only had the oil pastels for about 30 years, so I figured it was probably time to use them. 😄
I just wanted to let everybody know that I'll be hanging some of this new work for the spring at Studio 34 soon. Below you'll see a combination of new works done in acrylics and that oil and oil pastel combination I was mentioning. Some of these will be available at the gallery soon, and of course you're always welcome to inquire about purchasing them.
Thanks, and I hope you all have a great spring. It'll get here — just hang in there.
— Roman
