I am continuing to capture the feelings of February. The daylight is stretching and our winter snow is receding. I know winter has not finished with us.

Warming Sun
This new painting is now available through the Grande Bohemian Gallery in St. Augustine, Florida! This one has an incredible sense of atmosphere and light when you see it in person… never really comes across here.
Dreams Between Darkness
Today is the day. My solo show is opening at RiverSea Gallery in Astoria, Oregon. One year worth of work on display. Come check it out in person if you are able!
Rainbow Clouds (final)
Final studio capture of this dramatic cloudscape. I am still putting together my solo show collection, photographing some of the finished pieces.
Greet the Dawn (with me)
This one was varnished, framed and shipped to its new home in Florida.
Solace
New work happening in the studio. As you can see through the window I am living in snow country. These winter days are a great time to stay in and dedicate myself to painting. It is really what I want to be doing with most of my time anyway.
9 from Doodle in 21
These small paintings are from a bonus instagram account named cult_of_doodle. Last year I was using left over paint at the end of the day and painting little images without planning. It was a liberating and exciting way to paint. I found that it spawned new creative ideas and helped me generate more expressive work. We shall see if this continues…
Turn to Yesterday (and me)
This large painting has shipped to Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina. The painting is a pretty special one. I was planning to save it for my solo show in Astoria, Oregon this June but Momentum needed more work so off it went.
It was a long week of framing, packing and shipping. Finding time to paint here and there but the other work was overwhelming my time. Looking forward to digging in next week in the studio.
Sea of Dreams
Another small painting, exploration and experimentation for larger work. It is difficult to make such a small piece feel expressive, this one does.
Chasing
I am busy painting in the studio. This one is brand new. I have primed and prepped a lot of fairly small panels and am diving in.
