More studio photos of recent work. I have reorganized my jam packed studio… excited to see the work all together. Deciding what will go to my June 11th solo show at RiverSea Gallery in Astoria, Oregon.

Stand Alone
A new reel honoring the ending of the winter season for 2022. The snow is melting fast here so this year it seems accurate! This is my favorite winter painting of the year, seemed like the appropriate one to post.
Waxing Dusk (video)
I revisited this painting. It never felt “right” to me. Some additional work proved to be the right decision. Now I have finalized the painting, signed and varnished.
Homeward (final)
Final studio capture of this winter scene. Inspired by my short walk to the art studio. Winter has been lovely but I am looking forward to a change in the season.
Drifting Above
Another strangely optimistic painting in the studio. I have been obsessively listening to news podcasts and watching just about every other news source on television. It always feels like the end of days and just seems to get worst. I don’t have much faith in the human animal… but here is a bit of visual hope.
Moonlight
Final studio capture of this nocturnal painting. Just last night I had to stop and stare at a crescent moon. Nineteen degrees at night it still stopped me in my tracks. I took a moment to just absorb the vastness.
Rise and Fall 🔴
This large seascape was sold through the Grand Bohemian Gallery in Saint Augustine, Florida. Today I will be carefully packing and shipping this painting to its new home!
Winter Magic
More inspiration from winter sunlight in North Idaho.
Homeward
Locals are calling it “the big melt off”, which is definitely the case. Winter doesn’t really give up the ghost around here until April so it isn’t time to put away the snowblower just yet. This is one of my favorite winter paintings of the season. It is also my favorite painting size at the moment.
