I finished this oil painting, and then this other one. The birds are from Oregon and so is the rock formation on the coast. The rock formations will be for sale in the shop when it dries (it’s an 18×24″ oil painting) but the original of the birds has sold. Prints of that one are available here. I’ve also added a bunch of new originals to the shop- including the predatory animal paintings that remain from the show in Eugene.

I’ll be working a convention in March. I’m working the whole month, actually. I’m looking forward to springtime.

I’m doing a postcard project this year, sending out a drawing on a blank card every single day. Here are some of my favorite I’ve sent out so far.

All watercolors are on arches 140lb paper (some hotpress, some cold) and oils are unframed, on gallery-wrapped canvas.

All are painted from memory and photo reference I took, OR on site, en plein aire. When I travel, which is often, I go by car. This gives me a lot of time for landscape painting, photography, and just stopping to look around. I tend to look for places with a big vista. I grew up on the east coast and the sky out here west still seems so massive to me, crowding down against the ground in every direction. I’m a little bit obsessed with the sky out here,

Usually I include the road in my landscapes. This is because I love the road, and to me it’s the central reason, the thing I want to speak to and about, in any landscape. Whether it’s a dirt logging road, or a major highway, it’s a vein connecting all my experiences in the world.

Some are available as prints, here. Some are available as originals, if you click the images.
