I am working on a number of large scale paintings. Focusing on peaceful meditative imagery. This is my first finished painting of 2026.

Following Light
More inspiration from Lake Pend Oreille in North Idaho. I have been living on the lake for nearly a decade. The beauty is always an inspiration. I am always chasing the light in my art. The world feels so very dark far too often.
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.
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.
Grand (final)
I did a major rework of this painting from last fall.
Missoula Three
Three colorful pieces in the “Fathom” exhibit. Show wraps September 6th at Radius Gallery in Missoula, Montana.
Painter Is As Painter Does
A silly little reel from Instagram. This is me everyday, the hat comes and goes with the season. Enjoy the upcoming weekend!
Dreams Between Darkness-soon
A quick little video preview of my upcoming solo show at RiverSea Gallery in Astoria, Oregon. This is only a very small portion of the exhibit, 22 pieces in all. Artists reception 5:00 PM June 11th.
Away
Finished this small painting today. Welcome to September.
