Where has the summer gone? I am working on pieces for an October show and already dreading summers departure. Dig deep, that’s all there is to do.
Mid August?

Travels with Art
I have spent a lot of time this summer delivering art and and visiting galleries. I am currently on a road trip to close out my “Apocalyptic Beauty” exhibit. I took a slight detour to drop off a painting I sold to a great friend recently. He immediately took down a framed print and hung this painting in its place of honor. Now off to Astoria, Oregon!
Looking Back
This is s waterscape from a couple years back. I am always thinking about painting, where is it taking me? Part of that is looking back at past works and seeing changes.
Home is the Sea
This is one of the paintings I sold opening night at the RiverSea Gallery in Astoria, Oregon. The exhibit features 24 of my paintings in a wide variety of sizes. The exhibit is called “Apocalyptic Beauty” it runs through August 6th!
Blue
Final capture of one of the many paintings that will be on display at RiverSea Gallery in Astoria, Oregon. The show dates are July 13 through August 6, 2019. In related news I am finally having Giclee Prints made of a select few pieces, including this one!
Sea change
Though this painting was sold, prints can still be purchased at minted.com! I have many paintings available and more from the latest challenge coming soon!
Colorful Endings
Another new painting bound for my show at RiverSea Gallery in Astoria, Oregon.
Smalls (you’re killing me)
Another one of my small paintings. I found these little frames in my studio. I don’t remember why I bought them but decided the time was right!
Water Works
I am fickle about the tools and brushes I use. They generally have to get heavily broken in before I like them much. This new brush though has made It into constant rotation and I recommend it. It is a No. 12 Qualita FLAT By Creative Mark.
Elements call
Another small study potentially leading to a larger work. I have worked up a few of these little waterscapes now. I am going to begin a larger painting this Memorial Monday, along these lines.
