The Way
I have been planning a series of fog related paintings, this is the first one I have gotten to. Inspired by a really foggy day in the National Bison Range in Western Montana. That heavy atmosphere all but concealed the Bison but it sure was beautiful.
This painting is 16″x16″
Valley Floor
This 24″x24″ painting was inspired by a road trip to Montana this fall. A short drive that made for a scenic getaway and a trip down memory lane.
Winter’s Sun Series
Three acrylic paintings related to the elusive winter sun. These paintings are each 16″x16″.
Edges I & II
These 24″x24″ acrylic paintings have just been finished up. Technically I still have to sign and varnish but the images themselves are complete. These were inspired by the time just before the snow arrived!
Winter Sun
I put some time into painting last night and decided to paint a fairly frantic cloudscape. This painting is 16″x16″, I like the energy and color blending with this piece… hard to achieve on a larger format. It felt like a little glimpse of something new which is always exciting! Always trying to capture an immediacy and simple quality that is very tricky.
New Tides
This is a series of three paintings I am calling “New Tides I, II, & III”. These paintings are 24″x 24″ acrylic paintings. More large work for my upcoming show in January!
Shine
I am finally getting to some 24″x24″ paintings. There is a lot more freedom with all that space!
Continuing on with desolate landscapes and waterscapes. I have decided to call my January show “The Beauty of Nothing”, seems to sum it all up nicely.
Open Spaces
A collection of four recent paintings. These are all 16″x16″ acrylic paintings on plexiglass. I have just switched over to a 24″ format and plan on painting a number of 36″ pieces as well. Ramping up for a show in January which no longer sounds very far off!
Flow
The first 16″x16″ painting I have done for a while. It is nice to have a bit more room and surface to play with. I will be painting a bunch of these and some much larger paintings soon as well.
