This piece is part of an emerging series exploring the intersection of landscape art and abstraction, with a colorist bent. It is linen stretched on 1.5inch deep stretchers. I can be hung unframed (edges are painted), or it looks great in a minimalist floater frame.  It is priced as unframed.

This is from a backpacking trip in the high sierras.  I hiked in a couple of hours with my painting gear to this gorgeous lake, and spent the day trying to capture a bit of my feeling of awe being out there. Oil on linen mounted on board.

This painting was selected for California Art Club Echos of Yosemite Show in 2025

I love working en plein air, and this piece was created during the early hours of the morning at the seaside. The combination of the gentle, muted sky and the vibrant waters brought me a deep sense of peace.

I have always loved depicting the intricacies of the ocean’s blues. This piece is no different; on this day the water was vibrant and I wanted to capture that vividness. I hope this painting can bring a slice of the ocean to life.
