This is an older painting, two years old. I had been painting desolated man made objects working out the beginning of a series. I had four other chair paintings they all sold aside from this one. “Wait” was actually my favorite of the bunch so now I am pleased to hang it up in the studio. Perhaps I will revisit the idea in the future.

Drawer of paintings
I have some really large storage drawers in my studio. I have found the are not only great for storage but a great way to protect drying artwork.
Studio Wall
Fun to hang some paintings up temporarily on the studio wall. Some of these were part of a commission and have now moved out.
I installed some rails to hang paintings on which will help keep the studio organized and more easily allow me to observe my recent works.
Commissions
Gathering up some paintings in my studio that were commissions. I painted four 24″x24″ paintings for a great family that has a house on Lake Pend Oreille. Painting these was a real pleasure knowing they would be hanging lakeside on this beautiful North Idaho lake.
I will be posting more images of the four paintings along with two additional paintings very soon!
Studio Work
I have been busy balancing my time and mostly burning up the too few summer days. This is a photo of the clean portion of my studio!
I am working on a pretty exciting commission, four big water paintings (24″x24″) inspired by Lake Pend Oreille. Hoping to have them finished by the weekend, this is one of four.
Studio Visit
Family came over this weekend. They wanted to take a look at my studio. Giving away artwork is a good way to clean out the studio!
The New Year
I started this painting January 1st. It is going to be a busy year, best get started!
Place
This is a 10×10″ acrylic painting I did this year. It was selected for the Tieton 10x10x10 show which is an annual competition held in Tieton Washington. A pretty interesting exhibit, they publish a color catalogue with the show!
The Artist is Present
When I was photographing the Agrestic Macabre paintings there was some curiosity around their presence. I couldn’t resist the urge to take a cat/bird photo, it also puts their scale in perspective.
Other Spaces #2
This was the second in a triptich that I did called “Other Spaces”. The images were simple and bleak but interesting, particularly together. I used paint brushes and a 24″ squeegee to create these paintings that are 20″ x 20″ each.
