I took a fun trip to Astoria, Oregon this weekend. The town has a number of interesting art galleries and has a great artsy vibe. When you catch the elusive sunny weather it is beautiful!

Churning

This is a 20″x20″ acrylic painting. I did a few months ago and added it to the scrap heap of misfit paintings. I pulled it out the other day and find I like it a bit better now.

Here is the completed version of the painting!

Tunnel then Jubilation

I live in a beautiful rural setting. I love the wildlife and privacy, but like everything good, I take it for granted.
Rolling along my eyes looking away from the world and into my own dark brain. Something brings the light back, this “forest tunnel” is the kind of thing I have grown blind to. Then in the evening with the headlights on… what could make me happier.
Shoal (WIP)

I’m continuing on with more dream like landscape paintings. This one is also a 16″x16″ acrylic painting.
I will finish the painting this week and post a proper photograph then!
Early Morning (FIN)

I completed the 16″x16″ acrylic painting that I was working on last week. It has a real glow in person.
Pond Friends
We have had a run of unusually warm weather for Early April. Into the 80’s already?!?!
One benefit to the warmth is watching the critters in my pond really wake up with the warming water temperatures. The pond is home to koi, goldfish, catfish, turtles, frogs, crayfish, trapdoor snails and a lot of insect life. I took this short video to give you a glimpse into the world. Notice a turtle appears center frame!
Early Morning
I am starting work on some new pieces. These are all going to be 16″x16″ acrylic paintings.
Dreamy lake imagery, atmospheric and calm. This is the first one mostly finished but still a work in progress.
Make You Blue

This is another painting trying to find that balance between something and nothing. I painted this in tandem with “I Hear The Owl”.
This is an 18″x18″ acrylic painting.
I Hear The Owl.

I have been working on some moody forest paintings inspired by the winter gloom of the Pacific Northwest.
This particular piece is an 18″x18″ acrylic painting.
