A new painting in the studio, I think I can almost hear this one. I am currently painting on some larger panels which is really a treat.

Mountain Bloom
A new painting in the studio today. This piece is a love letter to light and atmosphere. A few images from the easel.
Evening Glow
This piece feels like a trip to dreamland. A reflection on past adventures and so many memories.
Darkened Stone
This painting has a bit of a haunted and desolate feeling. I am always grateful when the is an emotional resonance with a piece. The vibe seems appropriate for these waning autumn days.
Golden Days
Two more small paintings, exploring that beautiful fade of day. The final blast of light highlighting the clouds just as the crickets start their song.
Grand (final)
I did a major rework of this painting from last fall.
Sun Season (finished)
I revisited and finished this painting just as the sun season is heading out the door. It always brings me down thinking of the expansive darkness ahead.
End in Gold
A new painting on the studio easel today. I always crave this kind of melancholic beauty. Something lovely and a little heartbreaking. I am currently splitting my time between 18” x 24” and some tiny 8” x 10” paintings. Exploring and trying to find new light.
Summer Blue
One of three very small paintings I am currently working on. The atmosphere and color scheme are the common thread.
I will post the full collection when it is completed!
Together
I really connected with this piece and am pleased to have it in the “Fathom” exhibit at Radius Gallery in Missoula, Montana. The show opens this Friday!
I am looking forward to seeing all the work hung in the gallery and meeting people at the opening. It’s funny I figured I would take a bit of time off this week before the show, I can’t seem to.
