Mountain Trail

Mountain Trail
9 x 12 inches
Oil on wood panel

This is one of my favorite places. It is about two miles from my house, on the western end of Standley Lake. Many times I have seen great horned owls in the trees to the left. The reason for the owls is that the field in the background, is filled with prairie dogs! And then finally, of course, the wonderful front range of the Rocky Mountains to view in the morning light.

The Sleeping Beauty


The Sleeping Beauty
5x7 inches
Oil on Masonite panel.

It was a lot of fun to paint this beauty with only torrit grey and white. (Ok, there also were a couple of dabs of black.)

I am going to enter this in the Torrit Grey Painting Competition. Torrit grey tubes were given out free to artists in some art stores earlier this year. By hosting the competition, Robert Gamblin invites painters to experiment with how light & dark values can have as much impact as color.

Charlecote Park, England


Charlecote Park, England
11 x 14 inches
Oil on canvas.
Several years ago, the family and I spent a wonderful few hours at Charlecote Park, a lovely 16th century country house on the banks of the River Avon, a short distance from Stratford-upon-Avon in Warwickshire, England. Local legend has it that a young William Shakespeare poached deer on the property.

This is a view of a garden walkway near the house, on a cloudy day.

What do you think? Did young Billy Shakespeare stalk a deer down this path? Probably not, but fun to think about anyway.


These are my daughters, Chelsea (L) and Margaux (R) walking down the long path to the Charlecote gatehouse. The garden path I painted is to the right of the house which you can see in the background beyond the gate.

Contact me for sales information.
