A dream like painting inspired by Lake Pend Oreille, you know the usual!
I am now working on 16″x20″ & 18″x24″ boards. Time to make larger works for upcoming shows!

Prelude
This painting is off to it’s new home today. There is an idyllic dream quality that is compelling and surreal about this one. Like a memory that is just a little too sweet to be entirely real.
Beneath the Surface
Two 11″x14″ paintings I wrapped up last night… well aside from varnishing, signing, framing 😳. They really look good together as an accidental diptych!
I often work two or three paintings of similar subject at a time. It keeps my focus narrowed and my paints can be shared between multiple paintings. I frequently make interesting discoveries and small creative jumps with this approach!
Rising
I am putting the finishing touches on this 24″x 18″ painting. It seems like I am always trying to paint ethereal meditative works. This one gives me the feeling of drifting through the air, like the best kind of dream.
I will put a frame on it for the Bainbridge Performing Arts exhibit.
Distant
I love the power and ever shifting appearance of clouds. Giants of the sky decorating the blue or bringing in weather.
I have been working on a series featuring clouds. This is one I finished recently, it captures a bit of magic for me…
This acrylic painting is 16″x16″
Transitions in Stone
Yet another 24″x30″ acrylic painting. I have done a few of these meditative shoreline paintings, this is the last for now.
I am continuing works at this scale for upcoming shows.
Burning Sky
The title says it all about this 12″x9″ acrylic painting.
Shallow Water
I have been working on a few of these large (24″x30″) shoreline paintings. This is one of them that is possibly finished.
Steely Surface
I am drawn back to moody water scenes… probably the change of seasons.
I’m excited to be working on large dibondi panels, they are light weight and will be easier to ship and drag around to art shows!
Shipped to England!
This little collection of paintings was a commission for a client in England. They were picked up at my house by FedEx which was very convenient!
The larger painting is 14”x14” and the smaller works are 5”x5”.
