Painting Trip


I am leaving tomorrow for a 10 day painting trip in my homestate, Mississippi.
I'll be traveling some of the back roads looking for good light and good subjects. Please check back around the first of May.

Hedgerow (sold)


8x10, oil on canvas panel

Another rural painting from Union County. I "pushed" the color somewhat for a stronger color statement.

Charlotte Farmhouse (sold)



8x10, oil on canvas panel

I spend some time riding around looking for likely painting sites. This charming farmhouse is really not too far from me. Much building is taking place outside 485 in Charlotte, but it is still possible to find rural pockets to paint.

Road to the Tree Farm, North Carolina


8x10, oil on canvas panel

This is the road we take to the tree farm in Union County. It's a beautiful area, and I love to paint it.

In the Garden, Pampas Grass



8x10, oil on canvas panel

Here is pampas grass in all its glory. I love the way the light skipped across the garden.

Somewhere in Maine (sold)

8x8, oil on canvas panel

Several years ago on vacation in Maine, my family and I took a train ride. This painting was a scene from the train window.

The Red Umbrella (sold)

8x8, oil on canvas panel

I love to garden and also take garden tours--a inspiration for gardening and painting ideas. This garden entrance was perfect for a painting...the dark foreground with a few ellipses of light opening into the green expanse of the garden with that lovely focal point, the red umbrella.
