This is one of my favorites from the lightning series I recently finished. Considering doing a much larger variation on this theme.

Time
A small dramatic new painting. In this studio shot you can see some small jars with black lids. I use those to store key acrylic colors I premix when I paint. This is something I have done for decades. Now I use smaller jars and clean them out after use.
Freedom Colors
A new seascape on the easel today. I was thinking about Ukraine and the horror visited upon them. This world has a lot of darkness, I try to seek the light, it’s not always easy.
Evening Glow
A new painting, this one was completed over the weekend. Summer tends to get busy with visitors and all the distractions beautiful weather brings. I am trying to carve out as much time to paint as I am able. I always want to be in the studio, I feel restless and adrift when I am not.
Electric Collection
Sometimes it’s nice to dive into a subject and paint a series. These boards had been hanging around since winter and the summer storms inspired the series. I might to a big take on one of these or maybe not.
Crossing
Summer is so gorgeous in North Idaho on Lake Pend Oreille. It is a constant source of inspiration and excitement. I particularly like days when moody clouds drift across the lake. Summer is far to short.
Cloudy (Charleston Exhibit)
Two new paintings shipped to Robert Lange Studios in Charleston, South Carolina. The paintings will be exhibited in their “Cloudy” show opening on August 4th!
Electric
This new painting will be heading to Robert Lange Studios in Charleston, South Carolina. One of two paintings I will be exhibiting in their “Cloudy” show opening on August 4th.
Closer
I put the final layer of color on this dramatic new piece. This painting has taken most of the week to create, worth the time.
Summer Shine
A new painting in celebration of summer light and the good things.
Excited to be back in the states and more importantly back in my studio. Painting is a solitary adventure I constantly crave.
