Lately I have been working on some small paintings! I have some very large panels patiently waiting in the wings so stay tuned!
A little magic

Montana Country
I have been working on this commission, inspired by the big open spaces of Montana. I really enjoyed the subtle blending of hues in the field, the glow of light. I just love that kind of country!
Big and Small
Painting some small works for an upcoming exhibit. Considering a new life as a hand model.
Awake (for a little while)
Water and light have always drawn me in. The endless shifting of shapes and colors has a meditative quality. Slowly you drift.
Later than you think
I accidentally made some kind of new fangled clock! Turns out it is later than I thought…
By Fire
I captured a proper digital image of this painting. Trying to keep up on this sort of thing!
This will be going to my solo show in Astoria, Oregon in mid July. It promises to be a pretty interesting collection!
North… to Alaska
I am not going back to alaska anytime soon, sadly. This painting is a commission I am finalizing, inspired by Alaska. I would love to get back up there again!
Cold cold water
Just for fun I decided to paint some some small round paintings. I started with three owl portraits, which I displayed in a previous post. On my birthday I caught a massive mackinaw (lake trout) and decided to do some trout portraits! This is the newest painting, I love the strange dark vibe. I am going to do one more portrait and then wade back into my landscape work!
Yellowstone
In 1988 there were huge forest fires in Yellowstone National Park. My Dad and I drove through the park on our way to an epic backpacking trek just south of Yellowstone. I thought I would never see forest fires like that again, I wish that were true.
My Wave
Packing up this commission bound for Washington D.C. It makes the exterior of my studio look more like Cannon Beach than North Idaho!
