10″x10″ acrylicpainting. This will officially do it for small works for the near future. Time is feeling very short until the next show, I am doing a bunch of 16″x16″ paintings and working up from there. I need a time machine!

River Flows
A nocturnal image inspired by Kootenai Wildlife Refuge. We took a weekend trip up there and enjoyed the big open valley and mountain ranges.
This acrylic painting is another in my small 10″x10″ series I have been on too long.
Revival
This little painting came together quickly and had a bit of magic in my mind. It is another 10″x10″ acrylic painting.
Now that I have been painting in the attic for a bit I have it somewhat organized. I am going to paint a half dozen more pieces this size and then move up to some larger works finally!
October Sky
Work inspired by the grey skies and endlessly shifting light of Lake Pend Oreille. Even though it was hard to let go of the sunshine of summer nature always brings the beauty.
This is an Acrylic painting 10″x10″ in size.
Across the way
A painting I did over the weekend. Acrylic 10″x 10″ using a brush, knife and squeegee. I am aiming to let the simple marks stand and resonate. Sometimes simple work is surprisingly difficult to do. I want my paintings to have a fresh immediacy so my tendency to overwork and muddle is being shelved (in theory).
Two works
A couple of mood pieces I recently completed. Both paintings are 10″x10″acrylic.
I spent much of the morning prepping some more boards and starting on a new image.
I am trying to organize the attic space so that it is an easier space in which to work. Dark and cold it is still a place I love to be!
Autumn Sun
Autumn is here, somehow another summer slipped away. I decided to celebrate the change of season with a study in autumn light. This semi abstracted landscape is a 10″x10″ acrylic painting.
Pend Oreille Inspired
Four 10″x10″ acrylic paintings inspired by my new home water in North Idaho!
Transitions
It is hard not to let my surroundings dictate my imagery. I’m wrapped up in the beauty of North Idaho, currently a huge inspiration. I’m not one to feel like simply capturing reality is the ultimate goal but for now it’ll do.
Three Water Paintings
Here are three paintings I have recently completed. A meditation on rippling water reduced to 10″x10″ acrylic paintings.
