Prepping so many paintings for my upcoming show! I have finalized 24 works now I am wrapping them all for the road trip to RiverSea Gallery in Astoria, Oregon!

Packing up pieces for my show at RiverSea Gallery in Astoria, Oregon. These are the smallest paintings of the show. There will be 24 works in total. Show opens Saturday at 5:00 PM, check it out if you can!

Atmosphere and lighting are often components of my paintings that drive my work. Finding form yet maintaining a sense of mystery.
I have often come back to sunsets as a subject. Of course it is an undeniably beautiful transition but there is also a bit of sadness. Everything ends, we all know this and we are endlessly reminded. I guess that is part of the appeal of sunsets, the wedding of beauty and sorrow.

This painting is finished and ready for my show at the RiverSea Gallery in Astoria, Oregon. I am also having a limited edition of 30 hand numbered and signed giclee prints made of this piece (prints are 16”x12”).

Human Chain
24”x24”, acrylic
Busy varnishing artwork for my upcoming show. So much work to sort through, so much exploration.

Small Seascapes
7”x10” and 5”x7”
My smallest works varnished and framed for my exhibit at RiverSea Gallery in Astoria, Oregon!

My second painting for a large scale landscape show at Abend Gallery in Denver, Colorado.
I will be packing these up and taking them to the FedEx office this afternoon. It is always a challenge packing large paintings!


One of three small paintings I am packing up to mail to Horizon Fine Art Gallery in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. The gallery has a nice display of my work and consistently sells pieces.
