The temperatures are dropping as the sun begins to hide away. More and more I dread the winter but landscape is filled with inspiration.
I am working on a couple of paintings inspired by the beauty of the bashful light.

Grande Mystery (in Montana)
My painting, “Grande Mystery”, is now available through Radius Gallery in Missoula, Montana! I am really pleased to have a body of work back at this gallery. A stunning contemporary gallery in a very fun town in Western Montana. If you are in the area stop in to see the work, they ship!
Fathom
https://radiusgallery.com/show/radius-gallery-fathom#installations
I attended the “Fathom”, show opening last night. A truly beautiful exhibit. Two painters and a ceramic artist from three different states. I didn’t take many photos just hung out and talked to some people.
Scenes
Things have been pretty heavy. Trying to enjoy the light and the days. Here are a couple scenes from home.
The Shadowland March 29th – April 27th
The Shadow Land
I invite you to step into The Shadow Land, my solo exhibition where I explore the
emotional landscapes of psychological isolation, beauty, and dreams. Through my
latest paintings, I aim to create a space where light and shadow come together,
revealing the delicate tension between solitude and the quiet beauty that resides
within. In these paintings, dreams are not just a form of escape, but a way of engaging
with the deeper recesses of the self.
The Shadow Land is not just an exhibition for me; it’s a personal journey I share with
you, inviting you to explore the emotional depths of the human experience. In the
quietest moments, we often find the most profound beauty.
These are just a few of the 15 featured new paintings in the show!
Return (final)
This dark waterscape is part of my upcoming solo show at Haven Gallery! The exhibit is titled “The Shadowland” it opens March 29th.
This was the last painting framed for the show. I thought this was a 9” x 12” painting but when I went to frame it I discovered it was 10” wide… a rush shipping and I got the proper frame just in time!
Small Works (Abend Gallery)
I varnished, framed and packed four new paintings. They are heading to Abend Gallery in Denver, Colorado. They will be part of a small works exhibition, really pleased to be included. It is a great gallery, I had a solo show at the gallery in 2020.
A little water (sold)
Yesterday I shipped off this new painting to an art collector in Massachusetts! The buyer chose no frame but rather gold leaf edges (visible in the video). This all resulted in a lovely piece. The downside is I have gold flakes all over the studio floor.
