Sunlit Path

"Welcoming Shade on a Sunlit Path"   Oil   24" X 40"
Here's another painting from one of my favorite areas.
I love the dancing light that is found in these shaded areas
along these Cottonwood paths. Normally I would've taken out
the wooden post-rail fence, yet the effects of the light were
too enticing not to paint it.
"Looks like a good spot for a Picnic."

Spring on North Stillwater Road

"Spring on North Stillwater Road"  Oil  12" X 20"
I love these old Barns, yet include the opportunity to paint Golden Willows,
"Awesome!" This also afforded me the opportunity to explore
some new pallet and color options.

Fan Mountain Sunset

"Fan Mountain Sunset"  Oil   9" X 18"
My field study for this painting was a failure due to the lack
of good drawing. I was working so quick to get the accurate color
of the sunlight on the mountain that the drawing fell apart.
I recomposed this in my studio.

Mother Goose

"Mother Goose"   Oil   20" X 14"
"I Made It!"  This painting was Juried into Woodson Art Museum's
2012 Birds in Art Exhibit. I will be attending the opening weekend's festivities
at the Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum in Wausau WI Sept. 7th, 8th and 9th.
I am very excited and honored to have been selected this year.
Look for my ad in the September
issue of American Art Collector Magazine.
