A very tranquil stretch of shoreline on the easel. This painting has a lot of subtle color and texture interplay. The calm retreat of light.

Blue Forever
A new painting in the studio! I am currently preparing a lot of boards that are this size and 16” x 20”. These will be keeping me busy throughout much of the very dark winter season.
On and On (revisit)
I posted this painting a while back but wasn’t entirely happy with it. A bit more saturation and detail and now it is complete!
Eventide
A new painting on the easel! I have had Covid the entire time I painted this. It has been a strange shaking fever dream but the painting came through! All of these years since the pandemic, this is the first time I caught the virus… I have been fortunate.
It is exciting to be working on some larger paintings once more. I am also preparing a lot of wood panels for future work, stay tuned.
On and On
A new seascape in the studio. Much of the subtlety doesn’t make it across in photographs, a common complaint I know. After working on so many tiny paintings this summer it was nice to give myself some larger space to explore.

Always chasing light and atmosphere in my work. This one at a small scale.
I am continuing to work on smaller works for fall shows. The summer is rolling past at an astonishing pace.
Fading Day
A new painting in the studio. We have had some pretty spectacular sunsets of late. I was inspired to capture that ethereal fade of light.
I am preparing a lot of small boards and will be painting many small works this summer.
2024 Solo Show
My 2024 solo show at Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina ends June 22nd! Last chance to see this huge collection in person. These paintings represent a huge chunk of time, I poured my heart into them.
Thank you to Samantha Keely Smith, for providing the video I used in this reel. She is one of my favorite painters, check her out if you haven’t seen her work!
Spring
I love weather systems moving across the lake. Expansive daylight with sunshine ahead. This painting is bound for Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina.
Mahalo (final)
One of twenty paintings that will be available through my solo show at Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina. The exhibit opens tomorrow!
