Shoreline Silhouettes
Atmosphere and light are always a source of inspiration. I am working on a number of paintings relating to the subtle shifts I am observing in North Idaho.
Memories 14”x11”
Another highly atmospheric lake scene. An interesting challenge trying to suggest forest and water in the most delicate way.
Tranquility
This 14″x11″ painting was a commission. The buyer liked one of my older pieces that had already sold and wanted something similar. I don’t recreate past work but I was definitely interested in visiting this type of subtle moody landscape again. I had a lot of fun with it and we were both pleased with the finished piece.
Mist and Distance 14”x11”
I have returned from Pendleton, closing out my most recent solo show. I came over to the studio to prep some paintings for shipment and decided to get a photo of this painting.
Safe travels on this Labor Day weekend!
Be Still
One of the last paintings I finished for the show at the Pendleton Center for the Arts. It is a 20″x16″ acrylic/open acrylic painting.
Heavy Morning 14”x14”
I sold this painting last fall. I had painted it on an especially sad day. I embraced the sorrow I felt during another dark milepost and made something worthwhile. I have always liked moody imagery and this one was a standout.
Heavenly Light 9”x7”
I just finished this little acrylic painting. Simple and delicate with a little mystery… those are my frequent goals. I used to labor away with detail but now I am much more interested in gesture and mood.
Morning Waves
Two 16″x20″ wave paintings I recently completed. I am focusing on mark making and blending colors on the boards in order to create a vibrant feel.
These paintings sold before I could post them. Luckily the buyer is allowing me to hang onto them until early July so that they can be part of the Astoria, Oregon show.
Crashing
I have been painting a lot of ocean paintings of late! This is a 20″x16″ acrylic painting on panel.
