Early Glow (final)
I spent some time on this piece late last week. I signed and varnished it over the weekend. I will be ordering a frame for this piece, considering it for a group landscape exhibit.
October
October already? These months are changing far too fast. I always dread the long darkness of the seasons we are entering. But my studio focus becomes even more intense, it keeps me enthusiastic and motivated.
Winter Rain (final)
This painting is a mood, I have been hanging onto it for a couple of years. Now this beautiful painting is available through Radius Gallery in Missoula, Montana!
Grande Mystery (in Montana)
My painting, “Grande Mystery”, is now available through Radius Gallery in Missoula, Montana! I am really pleased to have a body of work back at this gallery. A stunning contemporary gallery in a very fun town in Western Montana. If you are in the area stop in to see the work, they ship!
Abend Gallery (new work)
Two new paintings are headed to Abend Gallery in Denver, Colorado. They will part of an upcoming group show called “Through the Natural Lens”. The exhibit runs from July 19, 2025 → August 9, 2025.
Winter Light
I have spent this week painting some small work. It is very satisfying finishing these little pieces so quickly, a bit of a break. I will be buying more small boards to work out ideas for larger paintings.
Darkening
Dark psychological landscapes are always an intriguing subject. I just finished this piece, definitely echoing the vibe. It grows darker by the day.
Kootenai
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.
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.
