work in progress



I am continuing to work on this painting. I have worked in a dark under-painting for the bottom third in the first example and applied the foreground over it in the second. I have a few things to work out yet, and should have it finished shortly.

Canyonland


This new original painting of the Grand Canyon is inspired by a trip to the Arizona and Utah areas of the Southwest. Cool purple, red, and blue in the background and warm yellow and green in the foreground help suggest the perspective of this vast area. This painting is available in my Etsy shop.

Winter Slope


This is a painting I have been working on. It combines two different paint applications. It is 11 X 14, has a palette knife under-painting and was over-painted with a fan brush on gallery wrapped canvas. It indicates a more loose, painterly approach with cool colors in the background and warmer in the foreground. It is almost finished and will be listed in my Etsy shop.

Purple Sage


This new painting is something a little different. I used a fan brush almost exclusively on this one. It gives this work a light, airy, impressionistic feel. It is 11 X 14 on Ampersand archival quality gesso board panel and is now listed in my Etsy shop.
