Wildflowers - (Still life) 8"x10", Oil on panel. 

 
Along College - (Plein Air) 6"x8", Oil on panel. Storefronts off the Square in Waxahachie, TX. This was painted during the 4th annual "Paint Waxahachie" event. It received "Best of Show" honors in the judging.
Victorian Morning - (Plein Air) 5"x7", Oil on panel. This dignified, but weathered old lady sits just off the Square in Waxahachie. Probably too far gone for repair, it quietly speaks of grander days when cotton reigned in this Texas prairie town. 
 
Watermelon Truck - (Plein Air) 5"x7", Oil on panel. The Paint Historic Waxahachie event kicked off with a 90-minute quick draw in the courthouse square. A farmers market brought in produce and other sellers to add visual interest for the 40 or more speedy plein air participants.
See more from the Waxahachie event, here. 
 Beans, Beef and Coffee - (Studio) 24"x30", Oil on canvas. Going on suppertime at the encampment. Beaumont Ranch reenactment weekend in Grandview, TX.
Hill Morning - (Plein Air) 9"x12", Oil on panel. Cloudy and wet morning in Comfort, TX. My wife, Becky and I stayed at the guest home of a good friend during an OPS outing in and around Fredericksburg. This is the rugged and pleasant view from the shelter of the car port.
Braids - (Studio) 5"x7", Oil on panel.
Gold Headband - (Studio) 5" x 7" Oil on panel.

 My interest ranges from landscape to figurative to still life and western in subject. With sketchbook in-hand, I explore the possibilities wherever I happen to be. I work mostly in oils, both studio and plein air, my passion being the outdoor painting. Appealing to the wanderer in me, it combines a love of the outdoors and capturing what I see with pen, pencil and brush.

 

"For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities ... have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made..." Romans 1:20
 NEW

"A MOMENT'S PAUSE" Graphite on paper. Approx. 7x5".  "Pencil painting" is how Ferdinand Petrie introduced this method of drawing while I attended duCret School of Art. I love the sense of color that the use of various lead hardnesses will produce.
