I am putting together a collection of 10 miniature paintings for Abend Gallery in Denver, Colorado. They will be traveling to LA for an art show with the gallery.
The wooden edges on these boards is 1.5” thick so I decided to coat them with gold leaf. It ended up being a beautiful decision but my studio has a lot of gold stuck to the floor.
I received a phone call from RiverSea Gallery in Astoria, Oregon. They were letting me know they had sold some of my paintings. This was one of the pieces that found a new home.
Another painting inspired by the season. Heartache echoing across the years.
I am shipping a few small pieces to Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina. These pieces were requested for a small works show. This time of year galleries are always looking for small paintings for Holiday Shows. I am sending small paintings to just two galleries this year.
Drawing inspiration from the low autumn sun. This time of year can bring a sense of melancholy. I also get excited for the massive hours of studio time ahead. I am leaning into the season and finding some magic for my work.
A scene from my studio with a new painting on the easel. I always loved this Damien Jurado song as well…
This painting has sold through Horizon Fine Art Gallery in Jackson, Wyoming. As I prepare and frame a new collection of paintings it is great to hear about sales at one of the art galleries I work with.
This painting truly has a haunting feeling in person. Part of a series I am working on inspired by the lake shore and the season.
This small painting just sold through Grand Bohemian Gallery in St Augustine, Florida. This was a painting I did last Fall. I find myself again, this year, painting forest scenes in intense autumn sunlight. Clearly this time of year that low sun brings inspiration.
This painting sold through Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina. “Expanding Days”, was the final painting from my solo show. Momentum Gallery has also sold the four additional paintings I sent after the exhibit. The gallery has been really great to work with!
