Small Comfort – 5”x5”, acrylic

I was happy to learn this magical little painting sold through Abend Gallery in Denver, Colorado. They have been a great gallery to work with and consistently sell my work. I had a solo show there last August but it became an online only show.

Halloween (2020)

Oblivion’s Dance III, 16”x12” acrylic

This painting seemed like the perfect post for Halloween. Part of a series of dark tree imagery I created this year. I intended to paint some huge versions but the pandemic, fires and general apocalyptic vibe of the year dulled my enthusiasm… at least for now.

Rooted (SOLD)

11”x14”, acrylic

This painting sold through Abend Gallery, part of my current solo show. Labor Day weekend started with a fire on the mountain I live below. Some folks lost everything and the forest caught fire, luckily it seems to be out now. I paint this sort of thing but I don’t take it lightly. Fire is amazing, beautiful and utterly terrifying.
