Four paintings of mine that will be part of the upcoming Holiday Show at the Radius Gallery in Missoula, Montana. If you are looking to give the perfect gift this holiday season, then what could be more perfect than a painting of mine? The show will run from Nov 21 thru Dec. 31.
Here is a new digital painting I just completed. I’ve been inspired a great deal lately by the works of Frederic Remington and Frank Tenney Johnson…..as well as centaurs for some reason.
Just returned from a horseback trip into the Bob Marshall Wilderness. The great part was that I was able to attach my painting gear onto the back of some unsuspecting mule. Another bonus was that I got to eat much better than I do on most of my backpacking trips. Here are my paintings from the trip, as well as a few photos.
I found a spot on the rocks below the dam this evening, and worked up this little watercolor/gouache sketch.
A quick digital sketch. Playing around with forms, sampling old paintings of mine….and going with the flow.

I’m pleased to announce I will have 2 pieces of art coming up for auction this fall at the Northwest Museum of Arts and Culture in Spokane Washington. For more information contact the museum for dates and times.
I went on our annual Extreme Plein Air trip into the proposed Scotchman Peak Wilderness Area this weekend. This year fellow artist Aaron Johnson, and our guide Sandy Compton traversed up into the East Fork of Blue Creek. We saw some amazing country, discovered hidden waterfalls, ate many huckleberries, and created lots of art……and almost died, but that is par for the course.
A quick gouache sketch at the mouth of Prospect Creek as I try to beat the summer heat.
I love painting in the mornings after a good thunderstorm in the night, and the hole valley is covered in blankets of rising mist.
I love these turbulent spring days that bring a mix of sun and rain. They end up filling the sky with a beautiful tapestry of artist clouds.
