I have some 12” in the studio so I took myself way off course and played around with some water imagery. It’s good to break things up from time to time.

Euphoria Morning
Capturing proper digital photos of some of my recent works. This one fairly glows in the studio.
Bigger Things
Cloud painting on wooden panel.
Fire Sky
I love a dramatic sky. This painting is one of my favorite recent works. It will probably be heading to my Solo Show at Abend Gallery in August. I have so much to do for two shows, good to have some powerful pieces in my back pocket.
Close of Day
This painting just sold through Elliott Fouts Gallery. This beautiful Sacramento gallery has been good to me! I have been sending them artwork for many years and they hosted a great solo show just a year ago.
Pink Clouds
A couple of colorful mini paintings! I am painting tiny paintings as I work on large scale pieces. Keeping the plates spinning.
Hip to be Square
Hip to be Square
As a kid I never painted a square painting. I liked a rectangular format that could be a tall image or a wide image.
Often on Instagram people will comment about how they like the unusual shape of some of my custom made panels. With my contrary nature it makes me avoid unusual shapes!
Again I started thinking about sanding down some huge square panels I have buried in the attic. I realized part of the draw of the square format is the extra blank quality. The shape has no compositional interest. Sure a large square has a modern appeal but to me there is something so stark and empty about the square format. The painting is everything.
Water in a frame
An older piece that now resides in Hong King.
November’s Hue
One of five paintings bound for Horizon Fine Art Gallery in Jackson, Wyoming.
Yesterday I wrapped and boxed them all up. Today we are getting more snow so they might not ship for another day or so.
Arching Light
Straight on photo of this painting sitting on my largest easel.
