Two moody forest scenes. I prepared so many 12” boards that I keep painting images this size! It is a fun scale to work on as it allows for a little quicker experimentation. Ultimately I need to move back to larger panels for my 2020 exhibits.

A simple little study in preparation for grander pieces.

I took a proper photo of this finished painting. This one is only 12″x12″, I definitely plan on doing larger works with this moody atmosphere.

Throwback to some 21”x8” wave paintings I sold through the RiverSea Gallery in Astoria Oregon this summer.

Winter sun is a precious thing. This is one of three little winter light studies I am working on.

In honor of my sister’s birthday. Happy Birthday Julie!

One of my favorite fire paintings is headed to Horizon Fine Art Gallery in Jackson Hole! So if you are lucky enough to spend some time in Jackson stop in and check it out. The gallery has a small collection of my work!

Two recent water squares have shipped to an art buyer in Boise, Idaho. Hard to capture the magic of these in a photograph, the colors always seem to shift.
Have a great Sunday!

Storms keep rolling across Lake Pend Oreille. Sometimes winter feels cozy other times isolating. The beauty is undeniable.
