More small paintings in the studio. This one was inspired by a great September road trip last weekend. Fall brings beauty and melancholy.
I will continue working on these small pieces and see where they take me.

I am digging in and getting it after. Starting with small concepts so that I can work on bigger pieces in the dark months. This piece has a lot of intriguing qualities worth further exploration! My next solo show is spring 2026 so I will be very busy.

I revisited and finished this painting just as the sun season is heading out the door. It always brings me down thinking of the expansive darkness ahead.
This is a special piece to me. I held onto it for a couple years as it felt so alive and inspiring in the studio. It is now framed and available through Radius Gallery in Missoula, Montana!

This large painting is available through Radius Gallery in Missoula, Montana! This is part of the “Fathom” show ending September 6th.

A new painting on the studio easel today. I always crave this kind of melancholic beauty. Something lovely and a little heartbreaking. I am currently splitting my time between 18” x 24” and some tiny 8” x 10” paintings. Exploring and trying to find new light.
I really love this piece. It feels like a visit to dreamland. The painting is now available through Radius Gallery in Missoula, Montana!


One of my favorite pieces available through Radius Gallery in Missoula, Montana. Part of the “Fathom” exhibition that runs through September 6th. If you are near Missoula stop in to check out the show and the gorgeous art gallery.

One of three very small paintings I am currently working on. The atmosphere and color scheme are the common thread.
I will post the full collection when it is completed!

A small but dramatic painting now available through Radius Gallery in Missoula, Montana!
The painting is now framed with a nice black floater frame, my favorite way to display my work. Sadly I do not have a photo of it framed.
