RiverSea
This is the my largest painting headed to my show “Apocalyptic Beauty” at the RiverSea Gallery in Astoria, Oregon. The exhibit runs from July 13th through August 6th, 2019. There will be approximately 30 paintings!
Colorful Endings
Another new painting bound for my show at RiverSea Gallery in Astoria, Oregon.
Three Small Works
I varnished and framed these small paintings. The lower right piece is off to Colorado.
Moonlight
When the moon lights up the night it creates a magical otherworldly quality. The forest becomes such a mysterious and intriguing place. For all it’s beauty I can not recommend night hiking.
Blazing through Darkness
I live in North Idaho, conifer forests carpet the mountains. I tend to put my artistic focus into the big open spaces of Lake Pend Oreille. I do love the forest though and have wanted to capture the dappled light that blazes through the darkness.
Smalls (you’re killing me)
Another one of my small paintings. I found these little frames in my studio. I don’t remember why I bought them but decided the time was right!
Open Road (a little trip)
I took a road trip to Winthrop, Washington just about a month ago. It is an annual fishing trek with a couple great friends, different destinations.
Driving home on the back roads to Idaho gave me a chance to soak up the landscape. Explosive sunlight and massive clouds drifting across newly green fields. I love traveling through big desolate spaces especially if the roads are also empty. Nature always better sans people.
Water Works
I am fickle about the tools and brushes I use. They generally have to get heavily broken in before I like them much. This new brush though has made It into constant rotation and I recommend it. It is a No. 12 Qualita FLAT By Creative Mark.
Forest for the Trees
I was inspired to paint a few forest scenes. I live in a heavily timbered part of the planet. This first painting is reminiscent of the view from a small window in my studio. I like the wall of trees and occasionally spot turkeys, grouse and deer passing through on their way to the water.
