New painting in the studio this morning. I am continuing to work on small panels in my scattered summer days. When fall rolls around I will be working on large work based on my favorite ideas.

Rush of Time
This summer I am busy working on some smaller paintings. Trying to find a balance of summer fun with family and friends and my studio obsession. Small works are a great way to explore ideas, the best ones will inspire larger paintings in the future.
Evening Lullaby
Newly finished piece, this painting was a commission arranged by Radius Gallery in Missoula, Montana. I also had the pleasure of meeting the new owners!
Whisper Dawn (with me)
This painting is available through Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina. It is part of my ongoing solo exhibit.
The 24” square format is a pretty satisfying size to paint. Plenty of room for expression with a real sense of presence. I will definitely doing more work on these wood panels moving forward!
Ascend
A new painting in the studio today. It is always a strange feeling when you have shipped a years worth of work to a show. I dive back in and do what I do.
Blue (three)
Three acrylic paintings that are part of my upcoming show at Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina. Twenty paintings will be available and the show opens May 9th!
Through Darkness (final)
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!
To Be
A new meditative cloudscape. Painted on cradled wood board, my primary painting surface.
Proud Mountain
I love seeing the first light and last light of the day touch the mountain peaks. It is particularly beautiful when the mountains are capped with snow. They glow and are so inspiring and haunting.
Light Embrace
Painting atmosphere and light is always a huge focus in my work. This new painting has a great bit of mood. Really nice size board to paint on as well.
