A painting from December that I sold during my February solo show at Elliott Fouts Gallery in Sacramento, California. We returned from that trip in a night blizzard, white knuckles but it worked out!

I have always been a fool for that last glimmer of light. Beauty and melancholy side by side, both heartbreakers.

This is another painting I will be shipping to Horizon Fine Art Gallery in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. A new collection of pieces I am eager to share!

My newest sunset painting. I have a long day of varnishing and framing ahead of me. I need to ship off a lot of work this week to a couple different galleries. I am so thankful to have galleries selling my work… still I wish I could spend the day painting.

Playing around with some small sunset paintings. It is is really satisfying watching these colors blend!

Winter rolls on, that rodent was wildly mistaken! I am working on some vivid sunset paintings this month. I have a show deadline in a few weeks so I am going to dig in.

The third painting inspired by the Kootenai National Wildlife Refuge. I am currently working on an 18″x24″ piece in the same vein.

Last weekend we took a little road trip to the Kootenai National wildlife refuge. We didn’t arrive until the evening but the lighting and views were magnificent! The main loop drive was closed for the winter, but worth the trek regardless!
I have done a few little winter scenes inspired by the evening. I hope to paint a larger image next.

Melancholy and beauty, so often holding hands.
Two sunset paintings in a row! This week I will be posting some super heavy cloudscapes. So these are a peaceful pause before the storm.

I have been working on very moody paintings. It is the kind of work I love.
To mix things up I thought I would try to capture the brilliance of some of our recent sunsets. They seem especially dramatic after a gloomy day. The clouds lifting to an explosion of light.
