The two paintings on the right were sent to the “Woodland Show” at Higher Art Gallery in Traverse City, Michigan. They sold to a newlywed couple traveling on their honeymoon. A beautiful story to close out the show.
Woodland Stories
Ecstasy for Ennio
In my youth I was obsessed with Spaghetti Westerns. A massive part of the appeal was the amazing music of Ennio Morricone.
As an aging adult I still love the world the music conjures. Driving down an empty highway with that music playing makes me feel like a giddy antihero loving kid, R.I.P. Ennio.
Dusk and Forest
I sold the bottom painting and shipped it off today. I painted these scenes with the idea of painting much larger variations. I can not find the time to chase down all the things I want to do.
Drift Beyond (final)
This one is headed to a landscape show at Robert Lange Studios in Charleston, SC. Honored to be invited to participate at this cool gallery!
Small Comfort (and me)
This small painting was bound for Abend Gallery but sold before I could ship it. Now it is headed to Canada. The gallery still got paid so it all worked out!
Wash Away
Stories of water and light. It is a running theme through much of my work. This one is on a square 20” cradled board.
Fall to Fire (and family!)
4th of July family weekend! I enlisted my wonderful niece and nephew to display this new painting!
I have been painting 7 days a week for ages. It was honestly difficult to think of taking a break for the 4th. So sad to have the visit end, now I wonder why I am working so much…
Without Answers (final)
Final capture of this piece. Enjoying a few days off to spend time with family, happy 4th of July!
Breaking
One of three small paintings inspired by that sweet summer sun. I will post the three paintings together next week!
Fire and Water
Mailing these four paintings to Abend Gallery for a mini show of works on Artefexart panels!
