I have 6 square 18” boards that I am painting at the moment. Continuing to chase moody atmospherics. This one is still a work in progress but it is getting there.
Beginning
Tag: color
Crown of White (Abend)
A studio view of this painting framed shortly before it was shipped to Abend Gallery in Denver, Colorado. I sent a collection of three paintings to a landscape painting exhibit at this great gallery. It was an honor to be invited to participate in the show!
Transition (Astoria)
This large painting is available through RiverSea Gallery in Astoria, Oregon. The gallery currently has a large collection of my work!
Reflections (Denver)
One of three paintings I have shipped off to Denver, Colorado. They will be available through a landscape artist show at Abend Gallery. This is a really cool gallery, I had a show there during the Pandemic so I wasn’t able to attend… some day.
Greeting Spring
Today is the beginning of spring, at least on the calendar. This painting, appropriately titled, “Greeting Spring”. More inspiration from Lake Pend Oreille, and the changing of the season. Looking forward to lake time!
Color Box Water (TBT)
This painting was sold through Momentum Gallery a couple years back. Great gallery and a successful solo exhibit, all of the paintings were sold!!
I decided to take the year of from solo exhibits for the first time in nearly a decade. I am focusing on commissions and providing work to my favorite galleries. I am hoping to do another solo show in Asheville in 2024… hopefully I can attend that one. I hear nothing but love for that community and area.
Winter Guards
The beauty of winter, an irresistible lure for my brush. The season is long in North Idaho, this one really started early. Like all things it will end, reveling in its splendor while it is visiting.
On High
An intensely colorful painting that has a great vibe. I have been doing a number of 12”x16” boards of late. Eager to move onto some larger pieces now.
Solstice
I love the winter solstice. The days will once again stretch out and we can look forward to the light. In the meantime we can enjoy the low sun magic and winter landscape.
Winter Burn
Playing around with some 12”x16” canvas panels in the studio. A bit of exploration for potential larger works to come.
