This painting has a bit of a haunted and desolate feeling. I am always grateful when the is an emotional resonance with a piece. The vibe seems appropriate for these waning autumn days.

Marble Glow
I love chasing these dreamlike landscapes. I am currently working on a few paintings this size. I am pretty excited to get back to larger format pieces but I will be going back and forth in scale. I had a nice weekend away from home and enthusiastic to dig in.
Transcend
One of the larger paintings I have available through Radius Gallery in Missoula, Montana. The painting is part of “Fathom”, an exhibit opening today! I am packing up for the road trip.
Travelers
This small surreal piece is part of my upcoming show “The Shadowland”. The exhibit opens tomorrow at Haven Gallery!
Dreamland
A new painting in the studio. This piece has such a dream like quality. It has a unique glow and feel, hate to send it away. This one will probably be part of my upcoming solo show at Haven Gallery. I am still painting and deciding on the collection for the exhibit, “The Shadow Land”.
Halcyon Dreams
A very tranquil stretch of shoreline on the easel. This painting has a lot of subtle color and texture interplay. The calm retreat of light.
Spiritual (final)
I am busy finalizing and framing 20 new paintings for my upcoming solo show. The exhibition will take place May 9th at Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina. This painting is called “spiritual”, it is ready to pack.
Ascend to Dream (TBT)
This surreal dreamscape is framed and available through RiverSea Gallery in Astoria, Oregon.
Chill of Time
I am continuing to capture the feelings of February. The daylight is stretching and our winter snow is receding. I know winter has not finished with us.
Winter Dream
A new winter scene on the studio easel. I love nature, it is a constant source of inspiration and joy. I tend to use nature as a jumping off point. My paintings tend to be fantastical dreamscapes, this is a good example. The paint is also the subject, I obsess over paint blending and mark making.
