Water can be a source of peace and tranquillity. I find when painting images like this I get lost in the work and it soothes my mind.

My Waves
Three small paintings I did in preparation for the large commission I recently finished. These were a bit of an experiment with materials. For the final commission I stuck with acrylics but there are interesting roads to explore here.
Remembered Light (SOLD)
I was pleased to hear this painting sold over the weekend. It was one of my favorite pieces at RiverSea Gallery in Astoria, Oregon.
Waiting (studio)
A little mood on this Monday morning.
Revelations (studio)
Intense colors and strong contrast really gives this painting a lot of impact.
Composition
One last study before starting a 36”x24” commission. This one is a loose take on the composition, values and colors. The large painting will be much more detailed but I love the loose vibe and motion of this small take.
Disappearing
This one resides in Kirkland, Washington with some of my favorite people.
Break
More wave experiments before starting a large commission.
Water to Shore
A nice bit of drama with this piece. I am starting a large commission so I have been doing some related studies.
Summer Light (final)
From high resolution scan, I am particularly fond of this one. I was planning on doing some really large paintings in this theme. I have derailed myself but it’s still on my mind.
