Rhinoceros

Another in my "Forgotten Dreams" series. This image is loosely based on an actual work inside one
of the prehistoric caves in France.

Stone Pony

The latest in my "Forgotten Dreams" series of cave paintings. The multiple legs, in estimation, were to imply the movement of the pony. It is highly textured and is done in rich ochres and charcoal.

Cave Walls

This is the largest, so far, of my "Forgotten Dreams" series of cave paintings. It is 72" x 72" x 3" and has lots of texture and movement. The spiral is a form that appears in many cave paintings all over the world.

Tasmanian Tiger (Work in Progress)

Almost finished with another in the Forgotten Dreams Series. I recently saw a film with this extinct animal as an integral part of the film. One can find footage of the last of the "tigers" from the 1930's. They were not tigers at all. More closely related to Tasmanian Devils, they look more like a dog with a giant mouth, striped, a tail like a kangaroo and a marsupial to boot.

SOLD! Aspen Cathedral 48x72 Oil on Canvas Framed in blonde wood shadow box

I have already belabored you with how much I love to paint big, so I will not dwell on that aspect. I love this painting. It flowed through me as if I was some kind of medium. I use this palette a lot, so that was not so different, but the composition and application of color was spontaneous and I have rarely felt this free in the process of painting. There was little hesitation. My studio mates provided input which was taken and I am so happy with this piece that I think it will become the first of a series. Thank you for viewing my blog.

on my easel each is 16x20 Oil on canvas

The idea for this "triptych" has been percolating in my mind for some time.. It (they) are not finished, but almost. I am unsure as to marketing them as a trio or individually. I intend to put a resin on each one when I am done. I am also unsure as to signing them, because they can be placed in various positions. Advice is welcome. All of the Navaho Daydreams paintings are currently showing at the Dutch Art Gallery.There is now only one left of this tryptic.

Pigeons at Rancho de Chimayo 16x20 x2 SOLD

This painting was inspired by a photo that I took at Rancho de Chimayo. These pigeons were drinking from the stream that flows through there. I worked on it and could not get the impact that I was striving for, so I put it in the growing "contemplation" pile. I picked it up recently and made some additions and am overall pleased with the outcome.
