Witness

Witness – 12”x16”, acrylic

An instagram reel of “witness”, a WIP. Painting the moon and nocturnal scenes is definitely a challenge. I am enjoying this painting!

More nocturnal painting happening in the studio. Outside the wind is howling and everything is frozen. The moon is beautiful yet indifferent.

Every season has it’s charm. It still feels exciting to walk outside at night when it’s warm.

Playing around with some nocturnal cloudscapes.

This painting is part of my solo show at Abend Gallery in Denver, opening August 12th. Digging deep for this exhibit.

Shout into dark, deepen the word.

Moonlight as inspiration on this painting.

Inspiration from the dark end of the day. This one is at the Higher Art Gallery exhibit “The Woodland”. For sale through the gallery website!

Final photograph of this recent piece. Trying to be more diligent about documenting my work. I prefer to focus on painting but there is more to it.

Studio light alone shines on this moonscape commission. Last look at this one, it was packed up and shipped to its new home.
