Worlds Collide – 18” x 36”, acrylic painting

I am continuing to paint these narrow panels. This is the third piece and the second vertical landscape painting. There are six of these panels so more to come!

Journey of Light

I am digging in and getting it after. Starting with small concepts so that I can work on bigger pieces in the dark months. This piece has a lot of intriguing qualities worth further exploration! My next solo show is spring 2026 so I will be very busy.

I signed this painting in 2023. It never felt complete so I spent a couple days this week working on it. Now it is varnished and soon it will be framed and shipped to Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina!

Through Darkness – 24” x 30”, acrylic painting

I just put the final coat of varnish on this painting last night. Such a dramatic piece, excited to send it to my solo show at Momentum Gallery in Asheville, N.C. The show opens May 9th, I have 20 paintings to frame, pack up and ship!

Work continues, patterns reveal. Painting is always an exploration with endless potential like the best things in life.

Eternity’s Edge

This is one of a few large atmospheric paintings I am currently working on in the studio. I recently returned from a long cruise, more ocean related adventures coming this summer. Adventures take me away from the studio but they also fuel my desires.

Turn to Yesterday (and me)

This large painting has shipped to Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina. The painting is a pretty special one. I was planning to save it for my solo show in Astoria, Oregon this June but Momentum needed more work so off it went.

It was a long week of framing, packing and shipping. Finding time to paint here and there but the other work was overwhelming my time. Looking forward to digging in next week in the studio.
