I was pleased to hear that these two paintings were sold through Horizon Fine Art Gallery in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. They go back a few years, good to remember them and remind myself how things have moved with time.

Slipping Away
Dramatic low light of the season has resulted in some gorgeous sunsets on Lake Pend Oreille. It is sad to say goodbye to the warm weather but I am enjoying all of the beauty of the season. Preparing more 18” x 24” boards for new work.
Moment
The temperatures are dropping as the sun begins to hide away. More and more I dread the winter but landscape is filled with inspiration.
I am working on a couple of paintings inspired by the beauty of the bashful light.
Marble Glow
I love chasing these dreamlike landscapes. I am currently working on a few paintings this size. I am pretty excited to get back to larger format pieces but I will be going back and forth in scale. I had a nice weekend away from home and enthusiastic to dig in.
October
October already? These months are changing far too fast. I always dread the long darkness of the seasons we are entering. But my studio focus becomes even more intense, it keeps me enthusiastic and motivated.
Golden Days
Two more small paintings, exploring that beautiful fade of day. The final blast of light highlighting the clouds just as the crickets start their song.
Seasons End
I am continuing my efforts on small panels. Exploring ideas and moods before moving onto larger format paintings. Stay tuned!
Grand (final)
I did a major rework of this painting from last fall.
September Fade
More small paintings in the studio. This one was inspired by a great September road trip last weekend. Fall brings beauty and melancholy.
I will continue working on these small pieces and see where they take me.
Journey of Light
I am digging in and getting it after. Starting with small concepts so that I can work on bigger pieces in the dark months. This piece has a lot of intriguing qualities worth further exploration! My next solo show is spring 2026 so I will be very busy.
