I have been rearranging and clearing out my studio for a few months. Trying to optimize the space and make it more aesthetically pleasing. Along the way I have found some forgotten paintings that I really like. These two were from 2018, They will be on display in my studio once again!
I was happy to sell this new painting to a collector in Denver. The painting is on canvas panel so I skipped the floater frame and went with a different style… lucky he also loved the gold frame!
A bit of January’s mood on canvas panel. Each day we gain about a minute of added daylight. I am slowing the passing of time by monitoring this glacial change.
This one needed another glaze, now it is finished!
I was happy to hear this painting was sold through Abend Gallery in Denver, Colorado. Typically I hear about sales when a check shows up in the mail… the rare time a trip to the mailbox is rewarding.
I was pleased to learn that this painting was sold through Abend Gallery in Denver, Colorado. Really top notch gallery.
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.
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.
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!
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.
