Outside Paris

Outside paris, oil on linen, 5x7, available when the larger studio piece is complete

The morning before Thanksgiving I was ROR into the wild while Julie and her mom cooked. I took my thumbbox and went to a spot I have been eyeballing since we came through earlier in the fall. It was a spot I would never paint outside of the car because of a blind hill and flying cars. I sat in the comfort of the car, warm, listening to music and painting. It was very nice, though I missed the cool air and the sounds around me.

Last Light

Last light, oil on linen, 5x7, available after the larger studio piece is completed

This was done from a photo I shot on Julie's mother's land in Tennessee on Kentucky Lake. Beautiful sunset site but I was trapped with only my camera and no thumb box!

Delta Morning

Delta Morning, oil on panel, 6x8, $150, landscape

I really fell in love with the delta the morning we left. It was a bit overcast and the landscape was wet from a morning rain. The colors were incredibly rich and there was an amazing smell of "things growing and decaying" in the air.

Cotton Boll SOLD

Cotton Boll, 6x10, oil on panel, $175, still life, sold

Moonrise in Meriwether

Meriwether Moonrise, 6x8in, oil on linen panel, study (available after the larger painting in complete) $150, landscape, nocturne

Learned a great deal from the first night... I went out the next evening on my own and came back with this. Would like to work this one larger, the study and larger piece will be available at the time of completion. let me know if you would like for me to put your name on either one.

In the Moonlight

In the Moonlight, 11x14in, oil on panel, NFS, study, nocturne, landscape

My first plein air nocturne done with Roger and Greg. Millie Gosch and Craig Reynolds were also brave enough to join us. A little blue, but Thats what I picked up... just blue and white. I knew I could only focus on the big shapes. I enjoyed this more than any painting I have done with the sun up. Again, if you are interested in a larger piece based on this, let me know.

Hints of Autumn

Hints of Autumn, 11x14, oil on panel, study, landscape, NFS

Done at the Roger and Greg workshop. Again, I do not feel that pieces done in workshops should be sold. However, if you are interested in the larger piece that follows, let me know.

Fall Field

Fall Field, 11x14in, oil on panel, study, NFS, landscape

This was done at the Roger and Greg workshop... I cannot sell this piece, but if you would be interested in the larger piece that comes from it, please let me know.
