A little birthday painting for my wonderful Niece who turns 19 today. she is attending college at my alma mater at WSU. It is a relatively short road trip from my house which is also a bonus.

Three (going home)
Three new paintings being shipped to three new homes in three different states. I am grateful to my collectors and art enthusiasts. I am fortunate to make my living doing what I love.
Crush of Life (Momentum)
My solo show at Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina has just concluded. This piece is still available for purchase through the gallery for a limited time.
I will not be having another show until June of 2022. All the cliches of time are true as I get older… there is a lot of work to be done between now and then! My next exhibit will be at RiverSea Gallery in Astoria, Oregon. I will post the dates when the time is near.
Seasons End (SOLD)
I was happy to learn that this big painting sold through Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina. It was inspired by a late season boat ride last fall… the approaching winter always breaks my heart a little. Much to love about the dark season, solitude and painting… still it always brings a little extra melancholy.
Lost Light
One of my favorite new paintings that I shipped to Horizon Fine Art Gallery in Jackson Hole. I sent them two of these vertical vibrant pieces. Always excited to have work in Jackson, Wyoming!
Sea of Dreams
Another small painting, exploration and experimentation for larger work. It is difficult to make such a small piece feel expressive, this one does.
Studio Scene
Before my exhibit at Momentum Gallery (Asheville, North Carolina) my studio was filled with finished artwork. I only took a couple of photos which is kind of a shame in retrospect. The exhibit ends next week and is nearly sold out.
Away
Finished this small painting today. Welcome to September.
Clarity (going home)
This new painting has been varnished and framed and is headed to its new home back east. I am putting together a collection of small pieces for a number of galleries… but I also sell directly to clients.
Eastern Song (Florida)
I finished this commission and have shipped it to its new home in Florida. I don’t take on too many commissions but I find myself with a few in the works at the moment.
