Fixation on Red - SOLD

I am going to be doing a series of paintings that involve the color RED. I am going to be in a show (with lots of other artists) at the Columbia Art Gallery, that is called "Red" for the month of February. The show opens Friday February 5, 2010. I will be doing larger paintings inspired by the color red, for the gallery show. The daily 6in x 6in paintings with red, are sort of a proving ground for the larger paintings.

Rasmussen's Oak

I painted this one in September, at Rasmussen Farm, after the Plein Air Show in September, with Mike Kowalski. Mike and I went out to the farm, and both painted the same view of the oak tree, it was still hot here in September. Mike is a watercolorist who also paints beautiful oil paintings.
I have painted this oak tree many times, and it's always interesting to paint again. It is a little larger than my daily paintings.
Please contact me directly if you are interested in purchasing this painting.

What have I been doing with myself this summer? It has been a very busy summer. Just finished with the Plein Air 2009 Show in Hood River, OR. I was one of 32 Artists participated, we painted for 5 days, there are over 170 paintings in the show in the Columbia Center for the Arts. Our opening was great, we sold over 40 paintings from the show. We were very lucky to have the show juried by Ned Mueller, a member of the Plein Air Painters of America. I am posting 3 of my paintings in the show, I need to add the other 3 later. The photos of the above paintings are not the greatest, they might be a little dark. We have a blog about our event, http://pleinairhoodriver.blogspot.com, check it out, there are photos of the artists, the names of the artists who participated and some of the locations we were painting. Also there are photos of the fabulous opening, that was overflowing with interested collectors and art appreciators.

Some Boat Paintings, at the Hood River Marina

The Odyssey :: oil on panel :: 8in x 10 in
Nice Boat :: oil on panel :: 8in x 10 in
These are a couple of paintings I did for a Transportation painting show at the Columbia Center for the Arts. The boats were at the Hood River Marina, I took reference photos of the boats and then painted them in my studio. It was too windy and the dock was too busy to stand out on the dock and paint. These paintings will be in the show at the art center for the month of August, and are for sale.
