I have completed a couple of small sketchy wave studies in acrylic paint. I am planning on doing a fairly extensive waterscape/landscape series and these were just quick little works to try a few things out.

Together Again
Excuse the song title, it is a good one though!
Just for fun posting the most recent skull paintings together. Both 10″ x 10″ acrylic. Hopefully I will be back behind the brush soon!
Monkey
This is a 10″x10″ monkey skull painting in acrylic. I’ve always thought skulls are interesting. The similarities between human and monkey skulls adds an extra bit of creepiness.
Schweitzer Mountain
I am finally living in North Idaho. Not really moved in and there are a lot of giant loose ends but I’m catching the tail end of summer!
My sister and her family came out for my first official week here. We took a really fun outing up Schweitzer Mountain. We road the chair lift up to the 6,400 foot summit then hiked down 2.5 miles (2,440 feet elevation change) to the ski village. It was a breathtaking vista and a beautiful sunny day. We carried to go cup drinks up the chair lift and snacked on mountain huckleberries most of the way down the mountain.
What a great day!
Fish and Man
Here is the complete collection of my recent paintings. They are each 10″ x 10″ acrylic paintings.
Chrome & Broken
This is the fifth painting in a little series of fish paintings. 10″x10″ acrylic paintings.
This one is particularly loose and free. I rather quickly developed some bold blends and marks and knew I could only muddle what I had… Knowing when to stop!
Art Show
Made the trip to Eugene for the Maude Kerns Art Center. Fun times but very hot!
