Rocks and cairns and mountains and deserts.

That's all I think about when I paint. That and how amazing oil paint is. And color. And traveling. 

Flatrock, redrock. Oil on canvas. 24" x 30". 

Maybe I'll post some detail shots soon. This is all you get for now...it's really hot.

Alive and Painting

 

I am working away. The painting in the foreground is finished, but I haven't taken a decent photo of it yet.

I've been staying up really late painting - like 5:00am late. Good things happen during those hours, I think a mixture of sleep deprivation and knowing no one is going to knock on my door or call me helps me relax and frees me of inhibitions. 

Happy Friday dear friends. 

Come by and visit the studio!

Come on by on Saturday, June 16th to check out (in person) all of the work I have been posting and a few pieces I haven't. Close to fifty other artists will have their studios open as well! Come on by and check them out, then stay late for live music, food, and drinks in the gallery to celebrate the day. 

Find this on Facebook! 

(Porter Mill is where I work as Studio Manager and Gallery Director so you can see what I am doing when I am not painting!)

PS - Pick up the latest issue of the North Shore Art*Throb to read an interview I did with editor in chief Dinah Cardin! 

New Work

Two more 11" x 14" acrylic on canvas paintings. 

They're better in person, come visit. 

New Paintings

Continuing with the 11" x 14" canvases, here are three more. All are currently untitled and acrylic. I'm still working on larger oil paintings, and bringing a lot of the lessons from these smaller paintings in. Working quickly on these small canvases gives me a lot of patience with the larger ones.

Working. Working. Working. 

The Last Two Weeks

It's hard to say what order these all came in since I work them all at the same time. The paintings below did come before the paintings in the last post though. All are acrylic on canvas, 13" x 11". 

I like some more than others. 

New This Week

These paintings are smaller than what I typically work on. 13" x 11" is a good size. Working on fifteen of these at a time is liberating. All of these are acrylic on canvas, and as of now, untitled. 

You should come see them in person.
