Continuing work on my small paintings this summer. Starting to get a real collection of these works. They are bound to grow come winter…

Light Embrace (Asheville)
This painting is available through Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina. It combines some of my favorite elements, dynamic light, clouds and atmospheric landscape… plus water of course! Endless inspiration from Lake Pend Oreille in North Idaho.
Rush of Time
This summer I am busy working on some smaller paintings. Trying to find a balance of summer fun with family and friends and my studio obsession. Small works are a great way to explore ideas, the best ones will inspire larger paintings in the future.
Evening Lullaby
Newly finished piece, this painting was a commission arranged by Radius Gallery in Missoula, Montana. I also had the pleasure of meeting the new owners!
Proud Mountain (packing)
I am busy packing up 20 paintings for my solo show opening May 9th. The exhibit is at Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina.
🔴 Beneath the Shine III
I was pleased to hear that this painting was sold through RiverSea Gallery in Astoria, Oregon. This painting was part of a collection of six pieces on deep cradled wood panel. If you watch the video you will see that I covered the edge of the painting with gold leaf rather than framing the art. I have not done this recently. When on display it reflects a subtle gold halo on the wall depending on the room lighting.
To Be
A new meditative cloudscape. Painted on cradled wood board, my primary painting surface.
Tomorrow
I am always dreaming of a better future. What we all have is today, I will spend it painting.
Proud Mountain
I love seeing the first light and last light of the day touch the mountain peaks. It is particularly beautiful when the mountains are capped with snow. They glow and are so inspiring and haunting.
Higher
A new small painting, finished in the studio today. I have been working on far too many paintings simultaneously so it was nice to step away and paint something small that could be finished relatively quickly.
