SUNSET GLORY
Sunset Glory
Oil / Canvas

The sky was like it was on fire that night and I just had to make a painting of it. It truly is God's Country in the mountains of Colorado.

Hills and Snow
Hills and Snow
24" x 48"
Oil on Panel
For this piece I wanted to capture an interesting design and a sense of the light, texture, and depth of the space. I painted on Panel, which I thought helped build the type of textures I wanted. I layered paint on switching between palette knife and brush.

Snowy Creek Plein Air
Snowy Creek
9" x 12"
Oil / Canvas
This is one from yesterday, done on location. I walked out to the spot, got set up, and found out that I had forgotten my brushes! However, I had my trusty palette knife. So I decided to paint it all with a palette knife.

Cold Steel
Cold Steel
9" x 12"
Oil / Canvas
Worked with "cool" light in this painting. So I thought the title Cold Steel was a fitting title with the cold color look in the painting.
Here's the beginning of the painting. Just making indications of where things are.
