Oil Paintings Created by Travis Simpkins in 2019

2019 Oil paintings by Travis Simpkins. Scottish Rite NMJ and SJ. Grand Lodges of Massachusetts and New Jersey

     This year (2019), in addition to about 200 charcoal and pastel drawings, I also had the opportunity to create four large scale oil paintings. One for the Scottish Rite NMJ, one for the House of the Temple in Washington DC, one for the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts and one for the Grand Lodge of New Jersey. It was a lot of work, and I am very proud that something I created will now become a part of the history of those respective organizations.

     I have more painting commissions to complete and release in the not-too-distant future.

Looking ahead to 2020...
