Miniatures for Abend
I am putting together a collection of 10 miniature paintings for Abend Gallery in Denver, Colorado. They will be traveling to LA for an art show with the gallery.
The wooden edges on these boards is 1.5” thick so I decided to coat them with gold leaf. It ended up being a beautiful decision but my studio has a lot of gold stuck to the floor.
Pink in Jackson
These two paintings are now framed and available in Jackson, Wyoming at Horizon Fine Art Gallery!
Merry Christmas 2020
Dark Thoughts
Dark Thoughts
It is a stream darkly meandering.
Negativity eroding the shore.
Stay dry, the current is strong.

I often hear about Holiday depression. This year I seem to be feeling it. A terrible dread and sense of hopelessness. Perhaps it is a chemical thing. Maybe something to do with the sun failing to rise above the hill. I posted something regrettable last night on WordPress, I am sorry for that. I hope everyone is doing well this Holiday Season.
Best Nine
I wasn’t going to do it this year, but my will is weak. Here are my best nine from Instagram!
Thank you all for so much support in 2019. As an introvert sharing my art online runs contrary to all of my solitary instincts. I am alive, inspired and motivated so 2020, be gentle.
Client meets Cow
Happy Client!
Her husband commissioned this as a Christmas Gift for her but couldn’t wait until the Holiday!
Blue Embrace
In my life I have felt like a negative soul. Still it seems the act of creation is an act of optimism.
Framing the Moon
Christmas is rapidly closing in. I have all of my presents wrapped so I snuck over to the studio to do some framing. I have a lot of this sort of work to do at the beginning of 2019… I will split my time with painting. I get fidgety knowing I will be out of the studio a lot in the coming week!
Idaho water
My sister and brother in law made the treck to North Idaho to visit over the 4th of July weekend. We had a lot of fun on the water enjoying the rewards of summer.
I sent her home with a couple of paintings she was fond of!
