Another from Tidelands

"Tidelands- Three Dinghies", 6x8, oil on canvas panel

This has become my new favorite spot to paint! The bridge, the boats, the dinghies, the kids swimming... So much to enjoy here! Thanks for looking.

El Cajon Invitational Art Show

I am fortunate to announce that I am included in the 5th El Cajon Invitational, showing from August 5th through September 19th 2008 at the St. Clair Gallery. Join us for the reception Wednesday, August 27, from 5:30 to 8:30pm. I am quite impressed with the artists exhibiting in this show- lots of terrific art!

Tidelands Dinghy

6x8, oil on canvas panel
Returned to a favorite spot and finally painted the dinghies. There are MANY potential paintings here, I can't wait to do the next one!

Thanks for looking.

Barn on El Monte Road

6x8 oil on canvas panel

This was a fun little painting. I thought the scene would make a nice painting but I wanted to do a small version before making a larger painting. I think there's a larger one to come...

Hike with the Kids

18x24 oil on linen panel

I did this using a photo reference from a trip to Colorado with the family. This is a beautiful walk along the Piedra River. We did some light hiking, some fly fishing and a lot of sightseeing!

Caspers Ride

Caspers Ride, 12 x 16, oil on linen panel

This is a piece I did in the studio. I used a plein air sketch and photos as reference. Mark Kerckhoff is the person that introduced me to this fantastic spot in OC. It is still (rare) undeveloped land and a big equestrian draw. There was a lot of info out there the day I did the sketch, and I tried to put it all in. Mistake. I worked out some compositional things and tried for more color harmony in this piece. I really had fun with this one. I didn't plan on the horses, but on good advice, put them in- thanks Andres!
