I was happy to learn this magical little painting sold through Abend Gallery in Denver, Colorado. They have been a great gallery to work with and consistently sell my work. I had a solo show there last August but it became an online only show.
This feels so much like the Northwest to me. Common elements of inspiration that I adore. I am so excited for Spring.
Another small painting experiment with string line work. I am always happy for sunshine this time of year.
Yesterday I heard this painting sold through RiverSea Gallery in Astoria, Oregon! This piece is one of my favorites, a marriage of mystery and menace. The painting now lives in Portland, Oregon.
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.
Final capture of this commission that is now at its new home! I have a couple more commissions lined up. I am pretty particular about commissions, it has to be something I am excited about painting.
I started another Instagram account @cult_of_doodle. These images are a sample from that site.
I do a lot of quick studies, material experimentation and intuitive work that I never post. That new site is a place to show some other types of work. Have a great weekend.
I shipped this recent sale to its new home in Nevada. It was one of two paintings purchased by a sweet collector.
The beauty of the low sun and winter light. The magic moments are so brief, impossible to hold. Final studio capture of this piece.
