Late Afternoon Acrylic 5 x 7

The light in this image is what really caught my eye. Sometimes I take for granted the spectacular quality to the light in the southwest, it's so crisp and clean that often times I get comments from people that it can't actually look like that. Oh,... but it does and what fantastic paintings it makes! I hope it speaks to you as much as it does to me.

Stormy Acrylic 5 x 7

SOLD

I was driving around town on the hunt for my rainy scenes. I was using the view finder of my camera as guidance in traffic. It makes for some interesting driving skills but fantastic compositions. This storm had just roared past over the hill and I was in its wake to capture the essence of its effect on the city.

Three Wheeler Acrylic 7 x 5

SOLD

Finding interesting images to paint isn't hard for me. One of the aspects of creating these daily paintings is that I can explore and paint so many of the images that excite my creative process that otherwise wouldn't get painted for along time. This one happens to be a scene taken last fall in Denver. The three wheeled buggy was taking newlyweds to their wedding reception! Enjoy!
