Country Road

Country Road - 5x7 - Oil on Linen Panel
I love these little country scenes, is there anything more fun than driving back roads with your music playing way too loud?

Frenchtown Farmland

Frenchtown Farmland - 5x7 - Oil on Linen Panel


I found this scene in the Walla Walla countryside near the Frenchtown Historic Site. There are lots of picturesque fields nearby with some interesting out buildings that turned out to be very paintable! I wanted to challenge myself to put more structures in a scene than I normally would, and I like the result.

Turning - Plein Air painting

Turning - Oil on Panel - 6x6

Click Here to Bid

During the early fall I was able to stop in the gravel parking lot of an abandoned church or schoolbuilding in the Walla Walla countryside. There was a beautiful poplar tree turning gold only on top, with its lush summer green leaves left on bottom. Pair it up with the always welcome Blue Mountain foothills and it made for an irresistible scene!

Cottonwood Road - 5x7 - Oil on Canvas Panel

I think it's a federal law that EVERY town must have a Cottonwood Road. This particular Cottonwood Road is on the outskirts of Walla Walla, Washington. While driving along the road you pass vineyards and wheat fields and half a dozen farmers all waving and smiling. It's a fantastic drive!
