Creeks Crossing

This is a piece from a recent trip to Pisgah's Graveyard Fields area. Water was just low enough to cross without getting too wet.

Three Rocks (Workshop Demo)

Another scene from Pisgah National Forest, this was a landscape demo from a recent 3 day pastel workshop in Concord, NC. Thanks to Jessica and Keith for composition points!

Floral demo in pastel

Finished a floral that was done for a workshop in Salisbury, NC. Really wanted to punch the color a bit and have fun. Enjoy.

Mills River

Here is the new Pisgah piece referenced earlier in pretty much a completed state. Enjoy.

Two Aspens And A Pine

Here's a small 16 x 16 oil on canvas. You can see how I block in the image with the transparent red oxide using Gamosol and a rag to wipe away pigment and then finished painting. This comes from a photo I took in Wyoming a while back. I happened to meet Scott Christensen on this trip.

Beginning stages

New Pisgah piece

This piece is from the Pisgah National Forest outside Brevard, NC and it comes from a hike near what's called the Pink Beds. There's a slow moving piece of water in this area that is almost swamp-like. I'm exploring color in the beginning stages and will post as progress allows.
