We are starting to see more rain and the cooling signs of Fall. Inspiration for this piece headed to my October show on Vashon Island.

Sleep
Clarity as the clouds embrace the light.

A painting from early February of this year. I sold this one through Horizon Fine Art Gallery in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
Solitude
This large piece is at Abend Gallery in Denver Colorado. One of my favorite paintings of the year… it’s been a good year!
Lake Lines
This little painting went to Abend Gallery a while back. I am busy working on a body of work for a Vashon Island Exhibit in October then switching to smaller works like this for a number of galleries.

A proper digital photo of this piece. It feels appropriate for a Monday somehow.
In Time
Drawing deep the air is cold water. The wind numbing it shutters my fear. A little peace while the sun is shining.
Ode to Summer
Summer,
Once again you made me your fool. All those warm days and late nights the sun barely resting. I tried so hard to keep you by my side.
Now you are off to some southern land. I laugh as you go but I will never forgive you. I prize my solitude and I will cling to the darkness. Maybe I will pine over an old photo of you this winter. In April a sparrow might spark a faint memory.
Damn, I just want you to come back.
Charleston
This painting is at Robert Lange Studios in Charleston, South Carolina. I have painted many sunsets, this was a good one. The vertical format and warm water reflections really made this one.
Mid August?
Where has the summer gone? I am working on pieces for an October show and already dreading summers departure. Dig deep, that’s all there is to do.
