I sent this painting to Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina. It sold very quickly to an art enthusiast in Washington D.C.
I had been saving this large piece for my coming solo show but making a living isn’t easy. I have to sell some work as I go. I am so grateful to the galleries and collectors that help me keep this ship afloat.
I was happy to learn that this painting sold through Robert Lange Studios in Charleston, South Carolina.
As I work on paintings for my solo show in June, I am thinking about my previous exhibit at Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina. “Color Box Water” was special, it was never on the maybe list for that show (All of the paintings were sold at the gallery).
I am working on a lot of large pieces for the next exhibit. I am also taking a step back from shipping all of my work away to a variety of galleries and or selling as I paint. I am going to assemble a powerful collection and carefully decide what goes and stays. The next solo show is in June, 2022 at RiverSea Gallery in Astoria, Oregon.
A new painting inspiration from Lake Pend Oreille. I am saving this one for my June 2022 solo show at RiverSea Gallery in Astoria, Oregon! As usual I am starting to put work aside and focus my efforts. Every show I want to be my best, it will be tough to beat this years at Momentum Gallery in Asheville, N.C. (I swear I will).
Four of ten paintings for Abend Gallery in Denver, Colorado. These are painted on wood panel with a 1.5” cradled edge. I applied gold leaf to the edge of the painting with a really beautiful result.
A new commission I finished painting and have now shipped across the country. This project was arranged through Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina.
These two paintings are now framed and available in Jackson, Wyoming at Horizon Fine Art Gallery!
I received a phone call from RiverSea Gallery in Astoria, Oregon. They were letting me know they had sold some of my paintings. This was one of the pieces that found a new home.
This large painting has shipped to Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina. The painting is a pretty special one. I was planning to save it for my solo show in Astoria, Oregon this June but Momentum needed more work so off it went.
It was a long week of framing, packing and shipping. Finding time to paint here and there but the other work was overwhelming my time. Looking forward to digging in next week in the studio.
I am shipping a few small pieces to Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina. These pieces were requested for a small works show. This time of year galleries are always looking for small paintings for Holiday Shows. I am sending small paintings to just two galleries this year.
