The beauty of winter, an irresistible lure for my brush. The season is long in North Idaho, this one really started early. Like all things it will end, reveling in its splendor while it is visiting.

Solstice
I love the winter solstice. The days will once again stretch out and we can look forward to the light. In the meantime we can enjoy the low sun magic and winter landscape.
Happy Holidays 2022!
This photo was taken in February 2022, we have much more snow now! The painting is 30”x24”, acrylic and was sold to a client in Denver, Colorado.
Have a safe and happy holiday season!
Western Glow
A newly completed commission, arranged through Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina. Some very sweet art collectors have been patiently waiting for me to finish this one!
This is an unusual size so I had the board custom made. In the past I have built my own boards but it is more time away from painting.
Big Empty
I have been working on some small paintings. Using up some boards and finding satisfaction in some fresh pieces. I really love studio days, in a snow filled landscape.
Winter Path
A small painting to represent the season. Heavy snowfall in my part of the world.
Meet the Day
More small work happening in the studio. I have been painting some rather large pieces so it is nice to mix it up. Happy Thanksgiving!
Between
More nature adoration happening in my studio this weekend. Driven to paint landscapes void of mankind. I am the type of person that likes my experiences in the wild to be without bipedal intrusion. I have always been a loner.
March of Time (SOLD)
I sold this painting to a collector over the weekend. This piece was part of an Instagram story showing a number of paintings I was varnishing. It has been a while since I sold a piece so randomly, lifted my spirits a bit. Now it is framed and ready for its voyage to Atlanta, Georgia!
Studio Lifestyle
This photo was taken 5 weeks ago, much warmer days. Now I am wearing layers and a stocking cap in the studio. Acrylic paint dries much more slowly with these temperatures which is a benefit of the season!
