Three small paintings I did in preparation for the large commission I recently finished. These were a bit of an experiment with materials. For the final commission I stuck with acrylics but there are interesting roads to explore here.

Evening Shore (sold/final)
Final photo of this painting. It was one of the larger commissions I have painted recently. I just shipped it off to Oregon.
Evening Shore
I finished painting this commission during the week. I had done a few 14”x11” paintings in advance just to experiment with color and motion before tackling such a large painting. over the weekend I will varnish this one and install hangers. Then package and ship!
Composition
One last study before starting a 36”x24” commission. This one is a loose take on the composition, values and colors. The large painting will be much more detailed but I love the loose vibe and motion of this small take.
Break
More wave experiments before starting a large commission.
Water to Shore
A nice bit of drama with this piece. I am starting a large commission so I have been doing some related studies.
Seattle bound
I sold this painting over the weekend. As soon as I get to the post office it will be heading off to the Seattle area! The shipping is pretty reasonable which is always a positive!
I moved away from Western Washington a number of years ago now.
Throwback in the ocean
Throwback to some 21”x8” wave paintings I sold through the RiverSea Gallery in Astoria Oregon this summer.
Glass and Mist
A painting from a couple weeks back.
dang my WordPress app no longer works and editing this on my phone is very painful. Anyone else having issues?
Wave lineup
Studio Waves
16”x16” and 18”x18”
A lineup of wave paintings from last week. This week I will refocus on commissions and bigger projects.
