Palm Breeze

Palm Breeze - 5x7 - Oil on Linen Panel

While in Florida I loved seeing all the different shapes palm trees could take, especially when silhouetted!

Summer Squall

Summer Squall - Oil on Linen Panel - 5x7

I almost named this one something about spring, but then I realized that it's summer! The weather east of the Cascades has been so mild I'm losing track of what season it is. I painted this at a lovely little park outside of LaGrande, Oregon, looking across the Grand Ronde River valley. What a view!

Florida Shores

Florida Shores - 5x7 - Oil on Linen

I've been practicing waves lately, it's been a nice challenge. Some of my favorite shots to practice from are the photos I took from Palm Beach and Tequesta, Florida, while I was visiting for their plein air festival last February. Lots of great memories!

McNary Summer

McNary Summer - 6x6 - Oil on Gessobord

This was a great little wetland area on the outskirts of town. As I drove out to the spot I wanted to paint on a summer morning I was looking forward to painting the hazy light, but as I started working the haze moved off and left a blinding, hot sun. It was still beautiful!

If you follow me on Facebook or Instagram you've seen the in progress of this little guy. I love the subtle colors found right after or before sunrise and sunset!

Rural Greys

This stately Russian Olive caught my eye while I drove through the countryside on a grey afternoon!

Cottonwoods at Dusk

Cottonwoods at Dusk - 4x6 - Oil on Linen Panel

While passing through the little eastern Oregon town of Pilot Rock I was able to snap a picture of the moon rising near a grove of cottonwoods. I knew I would want to paint the beautiful dusk glow when I got home!
