This is another small painting (8″x8″). Reducing everything down to the simple basics of sunshine and water.
It is summer after all! There are only so many for each of us, word is less every year…

Big Skies
Three 10″x8″ cloud paintings I recently completed.
The balance of strength and subtly of large atmospheric skies is endlessly intriguing to me.
Morning Comes
…and evening follows.
This is an 8″x8″ acrylic painting. I have always liked tonalism and an overcast morning really displays that kind of magic. Now that summer is finally here we are seeing beautiful bright mornings, I will play around with some of that imagery, never enough summer days in this short life.
Take me to Spain…
I am not actually going to Spain but one of my recent small painting is. I posted a video of this 8″x8″ painting I called ” Everything” on instagram and a fellow DMed me to inquire about purchasing it… and so off to Barcelona it goes.
Blue Skies
I painted a 10″x10″ water painting last night. I am attaching a video as it is interesting to see how the light plays across the surface.
Wave Studies
I have completed a couple of small sketchy wave studies in acrylic paint. I am planning on doing a fairly extensive waterscape/landscape series and these were just quick little works to try a few things out.
Chrome & Broken
This is the fifth painting in a little series of fish paintings. 10″x10″ acrylic paintings.
This one is particularly loose and free. I rather quickly developed some bold blends and marks and knew I could only muddle what I had… Knowing when to stop!
Art Show
Made the trip to Eugene for the Maude Kerns Art Center. Fun times but very hot!
All Four
Four finished paintings. These are all 18″x18″.
Signs of Summer
This little acrylic painting completely slipped my mind. I found it while emptying a drawer in my studio. Kind of a fun surprise.
The work was done on a small piece of masonite. A thick layer of acrylic gel texture was built up and then painted over.
