This is a loose and simple painting I recently completed. It is a 16″x16″ acrylic inspired by the waterways of the Pacific Northwest!

Rolling Along

I am growing fond of working on paintings that are 16″x16″, a great size. It allows you enough room for brush freedom and loose work while being small enough that it is easy to manage.

 

This painting is still a work in progress.

Fields (WIP)

This is a piece that is currently drying. The sky is very soft but the foreground has an interesting dappled texture because the paint beaded up as it started to dry. Odd result but kind of interesting… I’m always excited by unusual paint behavior!

This is a 20″x20″ acrylic painting. I did a few months ago and added it to the scrap heap of misfit paintings. I pulled it out the other day and find I like it a bit better now.

This is another painting trying to find that balance between something and nothing. I painted this in tandem with “I Hear The Owl”.

This is an 18″x18″ acrylic painting.

This particular piece is an 18″x18″ acrylic painting.
