I am fickle about the tools and brushes I use. They generally have to get heavily broken in before I like them much. This new brush though has made It into constant rotation and I recommend it. It is a No. 12 Qualita FLAT By Creative Mark.

Two of a kind
I finished these two small sunset paintings. I have a number of small frames and am excited to fill them! These will probably be headed to my solo show in Astoria, Oregon in July.
Through the frame
Another small painting! The brush partly for scale, mostly for painting.
A little magic
Lately I have been working on some small paintings! I have some very large panels patiently waiting in the wings so stay tuned!
Montana Country
I have been working on this commission, inspired by the big open spaces of Montana. I really enjoyed the subtle blending of hues in the field, the glow of light. I just love that kind of country!
Big and Small
Painting some small works for an upcoming exhibit. Considering a new life as a hand model.
Later than you think
I accidentally made some kind of new fangled clock! Turns out it is later than I thought…
Surf
Detail from a wave commission I am finishing. 50”x20”, I will be posting more from this.
Parliament
8” diameter acrylic
That’s right, a group of owls is called a parliament. I had to look it up, such a distinguished and appropriate title. Now they are generally solitary birds so this is pretty worthless trivia, still must remember!
The name
What’s in a name? Nothing or maybe everything… this painting seems to call out it’s name.
