North Winds

North Winds – 18”x24”, acrylic painting

More inspiration from the home water, Lake Pend Oreille in North Idaho! I am obsessed with the changing landscape and it is an endless well of inspiration.

I used to consider 18”x24” to be a large painting. They now seem small but are a really great size to work on. Plenty of room for expression but small enough to cover relatively quickly, I am working on a series of these misty images with plans to paint much larger work in the near future. My plans are always fluid, always following my enthusiasm of the moment.

Happy Holidays!!

Beginning – 18”x18”, acrylic

I was happy to hear today that this painting was sold through Higher Art Gallery in Traverse City, Michigan. This one was part of a group show celebrating Lake Michigan. I had a solo show at this gallery a few years back and was pleased to be invited to participate in this exhibit.

Spring’s Promise (final)

Spring’s Promise – 18”x24”, acrylic

The finished painting of “Spring’s Promise”. I am leaning into the beauty of the lake and sunshine as our temperatures in North Idaho are suddenly skyrocketing. When I started this painting the snow was piled up, now it is in the mud 80’s… big change in a month.
