Today is the beginning of spring, at least on the calendar. This painting, appropriately titled, “Greeting Spring”. More inspiration from Lake Pend Oreille, and the changing of the season. Looking forward to lake time!

Small Comfort (revisit)
This miniature is from three years back. I did a series of these intriguing little pieces. I believe this one was sold through Abend Gallery in Denver, Colorado.
Things to Come
I just finished up my newest painting, “Things to Come”. It is a vibrant and meditative piece, it will probably be heading to a gallery in Florida. I still have to sign, varnish and frame the painting and of course package and ship so there is still work. Check out the silly IG reel to see it in motion in my studio!
Aurora
This is a painting from a number of years ago. Last weekend we were fortunate enough to witness a big “Northern Lights” show up here in North Idaho!!!
Breaking
Winter has come roaring back to North Idaho. Lake Pend Oreille is freezing and snow is piling up. I was shifting away from my winter paintings, but here is a new one! I do love the dramatic lighting when the sunlight is breaking through the trees in the winter months.
Life’s Shine
A meditative little waterscape painting on a dark Friday morning. I am still painting these 12”x16” boards… I will have to switch it up a bit. Enjoy the weekend.
Mountain Blue
The beauty of the lake is a constant source of inspiration. Magical lighting and moments that disappear far too quickly.
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.
Promise
Winter continues to paint my world. I was not planning more winter scenes but it is drawing me in with its silent magic.
Low Sun (SOLD)
I was pleased to learn that this painting sold through Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina. I am painting a lot of forest scenes these days. No plans, I follow my enthusiasm… my number one rule. Really the only rule I adhere to, I dislike rules.
