An atmospheric painting inspired by the place I live. I am always chasing mystery and magic in my work, this has a bit.

As Above
I am always drawn to light and atmosphere. This painting incorporated those elements well.

Cradled Warmth 2 & 3
Two atmospheric pieces embracing the light. The one on the left has sold, waiting on a frame before I can ship it off.
It Goes
I have always been obsessed with clouds. One of my friends is still irritated that he got pulled over on I-90 because I was trying to get him to look at some clouds and distracted him. If I remember right, the clouds were spectacular.
Remembered Light
This was a birthday present to my sister two years back. The saying is certainly true about time flying. Happy birthday Julie, you are the best sister in the world.
Grove
I just finished this small misty piece. It has some really intriguing marks and subtle color shifts I really like.
Abstraction (R.W.)
Simplification and abstraction, concepts I play with to varying degrees in my work. This little painting is all about the feel of light.
The Air
I really like the color scheme and moody vibes of this painting. As I prepare a lot of giant boards I am going to be going back and forth between small paintings and huge panels. Ultimately I want to create more large scale epic works. The large pieces are much more expensive to make and end up with a large price tag so tougher to sell. Ultimately they are more satisfying and I aim to please myself.
Into Blue
A small sunny painting on my studio table.
