Winter’s Sun Series
Three acrylic paintings related to the elusive winter sun. These paintings are each 16″x16″.
Winter Sun
I put some time into painting last night and decided to paint a fairly frantic cloudscape. This painting is 16″x16″, I like the energy and color blending with this piece… hard to achieve on a larger format. It felt like a little glimpse of something new which is always exciting! Always trying to capture an immediacy and simple quality that is very tricky.
Sense of Scale
I am continuing my work on large pieces, at least for me. These atmospheric paintings are 24″x24″. I have a backlog of paintings I have been wanting to work on… not enough time it seems.
With the snow piling up outside I am getting distracted by the stark bright landscapes that surround me… I will probably be shifting gears soon. It has been a long time since I lived in snowy country, I am loving it so far!
New Tides
This is a series of three paintings I am calling “New Tides I, II, & III”. These paintings are 24″x 24″ acrylic paintings. More large work for my upcoming show in January!
Pend Oreille Inspired
Four 10″x10″ acrylic paintings inspired by my new home water in North Idaho!
Transitions
It is hard not to let my surroundings dictate my imagery. I’m wrapped up in the beauty of North Idaho, currently a huge inspiration. I’m not one to feel like simply capturing reality is the ultimate goal but for now it’ll do.
Sunlight
I am continuing to paint waves and water. This painting is a 10″x10″ acrylic piece. I plan on working on some larger paintings again at some point but space limitations are still keeping things small in scale!
Four Small Studies
Four very small pieces, 6″ x 6″, acrylic paintings. Continuing on with smaller art due to work space limitations. I am planning on doing some 10″ pieces next as these little guys don’t allow for room to roam.
Wave Studies
I have completed a couple of small sketchy wave studies in acrylic paint. I am planning on doing a fairly extensive waterscape/landscape series and these were just quick little works to try a few things out.
