Summer Rain (SOLD)

Summer Rain – 12”x12”, acrylic

A square of weather and meditation. As a child I never ever painted on a square surface. I have grown to appreciate the format in my later days. Square is so void as to feel extra blank. Now I find myself enjoying the possibilities.

Texture (low relief)

Palette Knife & Gesso

Playing with some low relief textures. If you want a perfectly smooth application of the primer (gesso) a brush is a better choice. To get some interesting textures in the surface a knife is always fun. I use palette knives constantly for everything.

Between an Infinite Darkness – 30”x24”, acrylic

This is a painting I did just about two years ago. Not sure if it is the weather or the terrible news cycle that made me remember this one. This painting was part of my sold out solo show at Momentum Gallery.

Mountain Blue

Mountain Blue – 12”x16”, acrylic painting

The beauty of the lake is a constant source of inspiration. Magical lighting and moments that disappear far too quickly.

A bit of fun
