I am almost finished with this new painting. More inspiration from Lake Pend Oreille in Idaho. I will post the final piece next week!

Reflections
I am continuing my collection of smaller 12”x16” acrylic paintings. I have prepared a lot of boards this size and want to use them all before I move onto larger work. Seeking inspiration from my own work to pursue some larger pieces, that is my plan. My part of the world is my ultimate muse, the use of paint a close rival.
On High
An intensely colorful painting that has a great vibe. I have been doing a number of 12”x16” boards of late. Eager to move onto some larger pieces now.
Murmur
This morning I put the finishing touches on this small painting. I have a number of boards this unusual size. I will have to order custom floater frames when the time comes.
The Three Trees (SOLD)
This painting was just sold through Haven Gallery in New York. It is part of a group exhibit that opened yesterday, art inspired by the Uffizi Gallery. This painting is an apocalyptic take on a Rembrandt etching of the same name.
Rainbow Clouds (studio)
This is a studio favorite. I have avoided the urge to ship it to any galleries thus far. Enjoy your weekend.
Warming Sun
This new painting is now available through the Grande Bohemian Gallery in St. Augustine, Florida! This one has an incredible sense of atmosphere and light when you see it in person… never really comes across here.
The Three Trees (Uffizi)
This is a painting that draws inspiration from a Rembrandt etching of the same name. It will be part of a group show at Haven Gallery in New York late October. I am not allowed to show the final art until the show opens!
Shining (memory)
An older piece from a few years back. This one has that elusive magic that drives me forward. Making a living as an artist is a difficult task. More than simply earning enough to pay the bills. For me it is a calling and the core of this one and only life. I know most people don’t really understand that, even close friends.
To Dusk (SOLD)
I was really pleased to hear that this painting was sold! The sale happen through Horizontal Fine Art Gallery in Jackson Hole. It was originally shipped to the gallery with “gold moon” which you can see in the video at the bottom. Gold moon was a 12”x12” painting and sold the day it arrived.
