I really love this painting, one of my most recent pieces for my upcoming solo show. The exhibit is called “The Shadowland” it opens March 29th at Haven Gallery.

Winter Light
I have spent this week painting some small work. It is very satisfying finishing these little pieces so quickly, a bit of a break. I will be buying more small boards to work out ideas for larger paintings.
Dreamland
A new painting in the studio. This piece has such a dream like quality. It has a unique glow and feel, hate to send it away. This one will probably be part of my upcoming solo show at Haven Gallery. I am still painting and deciding on the collection for the exhibit, “The Shadow Land”.
Far Away
A new painting on the easel, inspiration from my home in Idaho. I am working on many new pieces at the moment, much more to come. I am ramping up for my ponchos at Haven Gallery. I am always painting but now with a specific bit of focus.
Easing Out
A meditative new painting. This piece really seemed to guide me, a bit of magic.
My solo show is coming up very quickly. I need to order frames and make decisions about which works will be attending. Still much more painting in mind as well.
Flow of Time
New Sky drama on the easel. Inspiration from my home in North Idaho. Lake Pend Oreille is a constant source of visual motivation in my work.
Afterburn
I love the shift of light and color as a sunset turns to dusk. This is a new painting on my studio workbench inspired by those late hours that are beautiful and touched with melancholy.
Between
The sun is elusive this time of year, dramatic when it appears. Constant inspiration in my North Idaho home.
There are many paintings in the works today in my studio. I am really getting into the groove, one of the better feelings to have as an artist.
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.
Shadow Season
I really love this painting, I will probably let it hang around the studio for a little while. The title and vibe precisely capture my feelings this time of year. The daylight dwindles and the temperature plummet. The studio feels extra isolated with the snowbirds long gone. It feels grim and a bit exciting. The studio is my haven, dig in and of course dig out.
