Warming Light (home)
I procrastinate varnishing work. It’s maybe a psychological thing but once something is varnished it is truly done. Even a painting like this one that I really like and won’t change… haven’t varnished it. It takes a sale or an upcoming show to force my hand. That just adds unnecessary pressure down the line. Yeah, it sounds like a psychological issue.
Rippled
One of six new paintings going to Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina.
Longing (Asheville, N.C.)
Part of a collection of new work shipping to Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina.
Into Blue
A small sunny painting on my studio table.
Patterns in Light
Exploring water imagery with abstraction and expressive mark making. Like many of my paintings I want to make them larger.
Breaking Light
I love a dramatic landscape. I have been up before dawn hiking and watching the sun break across the lake. Blasting color through the thick forest. Nature is endlessly inspiring.
Summer Light
Another summer has slipped away. I always feel a little crushed this time of year. Every season has its beauty and the lights will stay bright in the studio.
Long Before
In a strange moody land.
Return (again)
A moody piece that is a preview to the dark coming months. I have spent a lot of time painting at this scale. I will be working on much larger pieces in the coming months.
