A brand new painting in the studio! I prepared a few of these two foot panels just before my trip to Asheville, NC. I am working on a few pieces at the moment, really enjoy the size of these pieces.

“mystic lands” – March 12 – May 2
Just a small glimpse into my solo show “mystic lands” on display at Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina.
Some of this works date back to 2024 but the bulk of the pieces were painted in the last year. It is such a thrill to see my artwork on display in such a beautiful gallery. Everyone at the gallery and coming through the show were incredibly nice. I am especially grateful to Jordan Ahlers and Shifra Ahlers for their incredible kindness and hospitality. I have never been so spoiled!
If you are in the Asheville area please check out the gallery, worth the trip!
Late Bloom
I finished this painting yesterday. I started it late last year but it needed a bit of glazing and a couple of tweaks. This one is fairly simple but has such a mesmerizing glow and presence.
Green Mountains
This painting is a pretty special piece. Inspiration from the Green Monarch Mountain range along Lake Pend Oreille.
Grand (final)
I did a major rework of this painting from last fall.
Sun Season (finished)
I revisited and finished this painting just as the sun season is heading out the door. It always brings me down thinking of the expansive darkness ahead.
Springs Promise (Missoula)
This is a special piece to me. I held onto it for a couple years as it felt so alive and inspiring in the studio. It is now framed and available through Radius Gallery in Missoula, Montana!
Springs Promise (final)
This is a painting that I have always loved but was not quite finished. I finally buttoned this one up and, drove it to Missoula, Montana. The painting will be part of the “Fathom” exhibit opening July 25th at Radius Gallery.
I will be driving back to Montana in a matter of days for the opening!
Range (SOLD)
I was pleased to learn that this painting was sold through Radius Gallery in Missoula, Montana.
It is a really great contemporary art gallery, the closest one that I work with. I will be participating in a three person “waterscape” show at the gallery in the Spring of 2025. Much work to do!
Blue Forever
A new painting in the studio! I am currently preparing a lot of boards that are this size and 16” x 20”. These will be keeping me busy throughout much of the very dark winter season.
