The sunrise reminds us to begin a new day with a freshness and vigor. This was inspired from an early morning ride on my kayak.  The sun and clouds were filled with color and design.  I find joy in recreating such a beautiful moment.  This was created using a palette knife and layers of color.

Thistle Way

20x16 oil on gallery wrapped canvas

This was created in the studio from a couple of painting sessions on the river. The walk back to the car provided little pops of color with the wild thistles gracing the landscape. I completely changed up the color scheme by premixing colors of my choice.  I sketch out big shapes and applied the paint using a palette knife.  I left some of the warm underpainting showing.

Waterfall Garden

14x11 oil on canvas

I painted this at Chandor Gardens in Weatherford, Texas. This is a beautiful garden area now owned by the city. The original owner, Douglas Chandor created the gardens over 70 years ago. He was a renowned portrait artist, but his true love was the garden. The city is doing a beautiful job of maintaining and preserving this little bit of heaven. 

.  It was a calming spot in the garden with the sound of the falls splashing.

Garden Sanctuary

8x10 oil on canvas

I painted this at Chandor Gardens in Weatherford, Texas. I met up with a group of die hard plein air painters.  The Texas heat can be oppressive, but it wasn't in the gardens.  I painted in the shade and there was a nice breeze to keep us cool.  I am so grateful to have so many beautiful places to escape to. This is filled with texture and color.

Valley View

A sunset is one subject that grabs my attention. It gives me an opportunity to push color and texture.

Sky Reflections

11x14 oil on wood panel

I am drawn to river views and love exploring the possibilities in paint.  We painted on an old bridge overlooking the river this week.  The water was low exposing little islands along the way.  The sky was filled with clouds that reflected on the water making a beautiful spot to paint.
