Landscapes

New England Sunrise

I love the colors of the sun rising on snow-with pastels all blending into each other. This was from a photo of a winter morning in New Hampshire. Painted in 2009.

Newport Shore

The inspiration for this painting came from a photograph taken by Tim McCalmont. I just love California sunsets.
This painting has been sold.



Forest in Winter

Sunrise in the Rockies
I used several photographs and a lot of imagination to do this. I wanted to show the cool colors of the sky blending into the warm colors coming in with the first morning light. The reflections show the same. Painted in 2011.

Swiss Alps

This is painted from a photograph of Switzerland's Grindelwald Valley, taken by Brad Carlton. Painted in 2011.

Latigo Ranch

I painted this for my church when our pastor did a series on The Light of the World. This shows the dramatic colors of a Rocky Mountain sunrise. 
This painting has been sold.

Maroon Bells

This is from a photograph by Scott Johnson. Painted in 2009.

Fall in the Rockies
A typical  mountain scene with aspen trees that turn golden in early fall. This was painted in 2009.




Loch Lomond

This was painted in 2010 of Loch Lomond in Scotland.

Montana

I painted this in 2011 for my son's math tutor who loved Montana. I used a partial photograph that he had and I improvised the rest.
Maui Sunset
This is a painting I did of a photo my daughter took in Maui earlier this year.

Moonlit Lake
I painted this in 2009 of a lake in Rocky Mountain National Park in the moonlight.
