The limited sunlight of December inspires.

Morning Forest
A couple recent works that pair well, influence from morning hikes. Starting with small studies can either lead to larger pieces or satisfy the need.
Waiting (studio)
A little mood on this Monday morning.
Revelations (studio)
Intense colors and strong contrast really gives this painting a lot of impact.
Ancient Cedar
Small forest painting of a very large old tree.
Away
An older painting I recently dug up. I put a couple more hours into it and like the result. I rarely go back to older work unless I need a surface to paint on.
Waves of Pend Oreille
This painting was sold a number of years ago through Radius Gallery in Missoula, Montana.
Triple to Denver
Paintings bound for Abend Gallery and their 30th annual mini show.
Composition
One last study before starting a 36”x24” commission. This one is a loose take on the composition, values and colors. The large painting will be much more detailed but I love the loose vibe and motion of this small take.
Leaves of Light
Morning light shining through the fall leaves, hard not to love such a delight. I was greeted with fresh snow this morning, winter is eager.
