Final shot of this piece. It will be part of my solo show at Abend Gallery in Denver, Colorado. Show opens August 12th, best collection I have put together to date.
From Wind (final)

Magic Tree (two kinds)
Both have found new homes. Thankful to keep sales going even as I scramble to get work together for a couple of exhibits.
Symbol
When I was young I used to paint a lot of wildlife imagery. The bison was one of my favorite subjects. So a quick side trip to old themes as an older me.
Woodland Stories
The two paintings on the right were sent to the “Woodland Show” at Higher Art Gallery in Traverse City, Michigan. They sold to a newlywed couple traveling on their honeymoon. A beautiful story to close out the show.
Ecstasy for Ennio
In my youth I was obsessed with Spaghetti Westerns. A massive part of the appeal was the amazing music of Ennio Morricone.
As an aging adult I still love the world the music conjures. Driving down an empty highway with that music playing makes me feel like a giddy antihero loving kid, R.I.P. Ennio.
Drift Beyond (final)
This one is headed to a landscape show at Robert Lange Studios in Charleston, SC. Honored to be invited to participate at this cool gallery!
Small Comfort (and me)
This small painting was bound for Abend Gallery but sold before I could ship it. Now it is headed to Canada. The gallery still got paid so it all worked out!
Wash Away
Stories of water and light. It is a running theme through much of my work. This one is on a square 20” cradled board.
Fall to Fire (and family!)
4th of July family weekend! I enlisted my wonderful niece and nephew to display this new painting!
I have been painting 7 days a week for ages. It was honestly difficult to think of taking a break for the 4th. So sad to have the visit end, now I wonder why I am working so much…
Without Answers (final)
Final capture of this piece. Enjoying a few days off to spend time with family, happy 4th of July!
