I have been working on this commission, inspired by the big open spaces of Montana. I really enjoyed the subtle blending of hues in the field, the glow of light. I just love that kind of country!

Awake (for a little while)
Water and light have always drawn me in. The endless shifting of shapes and colors has a meditative quality. Slowly you drift.
North… to Alaska
I am not going back to alaska anytime soon, sadly. This painting is a commission I am finalizing, inspired by Alaska. I would love to get back up there again!
Only a day away…
I sold this painting through Elliott Fouts Gallery in Sacramento. It was part of my solo show in February of this year.
Nowhere is Forever
Another dramatic sky blanketing this seascape. I tend to think of many of my works as emotional landscapes. I would not call myself an “emotional landscape painter” simply because I find labels to be limiting. I probably just have a contrary nature.
Getting Framed!
A morning of framing and mounting hangers on sold pieces. This one is headed to Australia!
Saturday Morning
I put some finishing touches on this painting. Light transitioning across clouds and the landscape is always a source of inspiration.
I am going to spend the day painting but vowed to take Sunday off. The sun is going to shine and the lake is calling. This morning I saw an otter, spring is making me smile.

Shipping!
Finally this collection of 24”x18” and 10”x10” paintings are shipping. They are headed to Horizon Fine Art Gallery in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. I had to use a ladder for this shot!
To catch the light
I captured a high resolution of this painting before the packing begins! Getting ready to send a group of works to Horizon Fine Art Gallery in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
Endings in Light
I have always been a fool for that last glimmer of light. Beauty and melancholy side by side, both heartbreakers.
