      <image:title>Journeys - Light Within the Shadows</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 36 x 48 inch Price: $5200 Story Behind the Painting: When I first saw these shadows across this open area, they seemed to tell a story, but I didn't know what story they were telling. All I knew was that the shadows were not dark or overwhelming in any way because light shone between them. It seemed like it was okay to be engulfed with these shadows. It wasn't scary because of the light nudging through. This mysterious dynamic moved me to paint this scene, and I wanted to encapsulate those same feelings in the painting.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Journeys - Summer Tapestry</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 12 x 36 inch (or if displayed vertically 36 x 12 inch) Price: $1250 Story Behind the Painting: The intricacies of the arrangement drew me to examine this group of plants closely. Many different things were happening visually, but at the same time, everything seemed in place and well-ordered. I loved the complexity hiding within the simplicity where the familiar coexisted with the unfamiliar. As I painted this, I wanted to have those same elements of dichotomy evident in this piece as when I first spotted these plants. Everything needed to work together in the plants and the painting: intricate but complicated, tangled but orderly, interlaced but separate. I could go on and on, but it was this unique visual tapestry that inspired this painting.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Journeys - Beautiful Day In the Snow</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 16 x 20 inch Price: $1225 Story Behind the Painting: “This unique fallen log was nestled in a small ravine near my home. I have seen this fallen log many times and I often said to myself, ‘You know, I should paint that one day.’ After making that statement many times, I finally decided to act on it. We had received several inches of snow the day before, but the sun was shining brightly when I looked in the ravine that day, and I knew the beautiful scene before me would not last long. The sun's warmth would melt the snow, so the awe of that moment was fleeting. As I looked at the log, I noticed that the sun caused a glistening of the snow and a slight warmth over the entire landscape. As I painted this amazing scene, I wanted to express the joy and wonderment I had experienced on that wonderful day in the snow.”</image:caption>

      <image:title>Journeys - Chasing the Dream</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 36 x 48 inch Price: $5200 Story Behind the Painting: The dream is out there, and I am chasing after the dream. That was the feeling I engaged with while creating this abstract painting. By definition, a dream is not concrete but it could lead to something that is. It implies a process. Even though it may seem complex, there is a step by step developmental process involved. To chase after a dream demands that one moves from an ethereal abstract concept to a concrete and attainable one. Therefore, this painting had to feel movement toward something while simultaneously feeling certainty and confidence in what could be achieved. Thus, the inspiration behind this piece.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Journeys - Fancy Finessing</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 42 x 42 inch Price: $5300 Story Behind the Painting: This painting is all about shapes and how those shapes intertwine, interconnect, and weave in and out of each other. When you look at these shapes, they each play their part in such a finessing way. With an elegance to the movement and visual play, this painting makes a statement without being overly bearing.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Journeys - Curiosity (Pentaptych)</image:title>
      <image:caption>36 x 65 inch (36 x 11 each panel) Oil &amp; Mixed Media over Canvas over Board Price: $5950 Story Behind the Painting: The inspiration for this five-panel painting, called a pentaptych, started with the colors. I spent many painting sessions on this painting, which you can see as you observe the paint up close and notice all the layers of paint built up. That act of applying paint over and over again and visually being able to see the time spent on the painting lends itself to similarly viewing the piece of artwork. There appear to be various impressions that take place in progressions and stages. The five panels further enhance the contemplation as you move from one panel to another. There is a tendency to search back and forth during the observation of this painting. I titled it ‘Curiosity’ because it encapsulates what I felt each time I placed a new layer of paint on the canvas. Furthermore, the word ‘curiosity’ is a five-syllable word that fits beautifully with the five-panel painting.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Journeys - "Echoes In the Stillness"</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 20 x 30 inch Price: $2250 Story Behind the Painting: When I happened upon this scene, I loved how the reflections in the water and the various patterns of the moss and trees created something visually captivating. It was as if what I was seeing was echoing back to me in so many ways. As I was painting, I wanted to depict the same feelings I had with my first encounter; the eyes were on high alert and actively engaged to see all that there was to see, while my other senses seemed relaxed. This created a unique dichotomy inside of me. There is so much to see when you view this painting. Yet there is also a calmness and stillness that comes with the seeing because of the echoes that happen in the stillness.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Journeys - Dynamic Connections</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 36 x 48 inch Price: $3800 Story Behind the Painting: The inspiration for this painting is likened to the expression when someone walks into the room and says, "Ta-Dah!" It is like, "Here I am!" It is very expressive, dynamic, and full of fanfare. It has pizzazz to it. For this painting, I wanted to have the Ta-Dah feeling, but because of the harmony within the piece, it wasn't just one person doing the Ta-Dah. It was the entirety of the whole doing it. It was all the connections that made the Ta-Dah so dynamic. It is the power of the group or the power of the supporting characters working together that makes it what it is. In the end, the dynamic connections make the entrance so dramatic.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Journeys - Abstracted Singleness</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 36 x 12 inch Price: $1550 Story Behind the Painting: The inspiration for this abstract was a single tree, which I noticed standing tall alongside the road. It was all alone—a solitary self. It wasn't in a grove of other trees similar to its kind, but yet it seemed to have a sense of purpose and intention. I wondered what this tree might be like with its own unique personality and characteristics. Yet, in its distinctiveness, there seemed to be abstract qualities about it that made up the whole. I liked the idea of something that was a single unit but contained abstract qualities that were hard to define but nonetheless made up the whole.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Journeys - "Single But Not Alone"</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 36 x 12 inch Price: $1550 Story Behind the Painting: As I was driving through a very picturesque landscape, I noticed this single tree standing tall alongside the road. It was all alone—a solitary self. It wasn't in a grove of other trees similar to its kind, but yet it seemed to have purpose and intention. I liked the idea that someone could be strong within their own uniqueness and that you don't need other "trees" who are like-minded to survive. This tree was doing it, and it was this determination within the solitude that inspired this painting.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Journeys - B.O.L.D. (Blunt, Outspoken, Loud, Direct)</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 34 x 48 inch Price: $5200 Story Behind the Painting: I love how this painting is just in your face. I had so many words to describe it that I ended up for the first time utilizing an acronym. It truly is Blunt, Outspoken, Loud, and Direct. The inspiration for this painting coincided with the painting, “Conversations In the Shadows.” I wanted to have something straightforward using colors considered calming, like blues, greens, and yellows rather than more traditionally aggressive colors such as red or black. The large size also corresponds and complements the theme.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Journeys - "Illusions of the White Cloth"</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 20 x 16 inch Price: $1050 Story Behind the Painting: I placed two completely different light sources on opposite sides of each other. One was a blue light, and the other was a red light. I wanted to see what happened as the different colored lights intersected and then crossed as they moved across a simple white cloth. At first glance, you probably wouldn't notice that it is a white cloth. The colored lights made an illusion of something different. By definition, illusions can be wrongly perceived or interpreted by the senses. It can appear false or deceptive. Yet as you look at this white cloth, it is nonetheless still a very real white cloth even though the illusion may be something completely different.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Aspen Gathering</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 20 × 30 inch Price: $7225 Story Behind the Painting: On this fall day, the aspens before me were absolutely breathtaking. Each tree seemed to carry its own personality, yet together they felt almost conversational—as if I were witnessing a quiet social gathering expressed through nature. The more I observed, the more I longed to step into the scene, to wander among them and experience their presence up close. In that moment, there was a heightened awareness, a richness that felt both simple and complex. It was that experience I sought to capture in this painting.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Quiet Place</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 14 x 18 inch Price: $1095 Story Behind the Painting: This particular area has a trail that winds around a body of water. It is one of those places that invites you to settle in and spend some time. It was so quiet and peaceful when I was here on a beautiful autumn day. There was no wind, and it seemed like everything around me was very still. In fact, it was so still that it seemed like my senses were heightened. I could hear things I would not typically have heard on different days. I could hear the birds. And as I walked, I could hear the crunch of the drying grasses and drying leaves under my feet. The smells were clear and crisp. It was a very unique experience in this regard. As I painted this, I wanted to capture the amazing feelings of the quietness and the heightened awareness I encountered that day.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Surrounded By . . .</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil on Canvas over Board 20 x 30 inch Price: $2250 Story Behind the Painting: There were so many aspens around me that they almost engulfed me. Yet, I never felt overwhelmed by those surroundings. The colors were so full and vibrant. I felt as if everything around me was hugging me in some way. As I painted this, I felt a great desire to portray the feeling of being surrounded and immersed in the fullness of beauty. I wanted the painting to feel tactile, with the visual perception of something very tangible in front of the viewer.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Out to Pasture</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 16 x 20 inch Price: $2250 Story Behind the Painting: A traditional western ranch idiom talks about going “out to pasture.” It essentially means putting the animals out in the grassland where they can freely graze for the day. I wanted to capture the feeling of lazy grazing, not having to work too hard; everything is being provided right there. It is like, "Take a bite, take a step, take another bite, take another step, etc., etc.," There is no fighting for green grass and no struggle to survive. The fence is there, but it really isn't much of a concern. Everything is fine. In being “out to pasture” time has slowed down and there is a contentment that leads to loving life.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Intertwined</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 16 x 20 inch Price: $2250 Story Behind the Painting: I was taking a walk with my wife along a boarded path. There was a small body of water off to the side. I was enjoying the walk and appreciating all the beauty I was experiencing. The tree was nothing special. It was mostly dead, yet part of it was still alive. I kept walking until something caught my attention out of the corner of my eye. Amongst the entanglement of the thicket, this bird perched itself on one of the branches. At that moment, I felt so many things, the primary being, "I have to get my camera without scaring off this bird." What captivated me most was the way the tree entwined into itself, and the bird blended into those entwined surroundings. I thought, "How did I almost miss this?" and then, "What was this bird waiting for?" I could tell that the bird was alert and watchful, yet it also seemed to be relaxed, seemingly protected by everything around it. The branches interconnecting with the bird and vice versa mesmerized me as I pondered the close association between the two. The intertwining bound it all together.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Radiant Sunrise</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 16 x 20 inch Price: $1225 Story Behind the Painting: Early one day I was leaving for a road trip across our great country. It was almost dawn, and I could tell that I was about to witness a beautiful sunrise. Oh my, was I surprised! The sunrise that appeared was more than amazing. It was magnificent! I wanted to capture everything that I felt at that moment. The intensity of the colors and the dramatic contrast were all nestled in the perfect conditions of the coming day. All I could say when I saw it was, "Wow, that is one Radiant Sunrise."</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Slowly Changing</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 16 x 20 inch Price: $1225 Story Behind the Painting: I have driven by this barn many times and have always wanted to do a painting of it. I don't know why, but I always enjoyed seeing it. Maybe it was because it was always there, very constant and quiet as it stood off in the distance. There seemed to be a steadiness to it that was unhurried by time. There never seemed to be a lot of activity around the place and for the most part the scene was undisturbed. Yet I also knew that because of the passing of time some changes were taking place. It was the slow and steady change of an otherwise constant picture that drew me to create this painting.</image:caption>

I was so excited when it finally began to come together as a painting. I really love how the early morning light is sweeping across the river. It gives me the feeling that it is going to be a great day. It is full of possibility, hope and promise and it feels as if no challenge is too great because I am ready for whatever comes my way.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>16 x 20 inch Oil and Mixed Media on Canvas over Board Price: $1150 This painting can be purchase from The District Gallery (thedistrictgallery.com) 865-200-4452 Story Behind the Painting: I was doing some exploring outside of Knoxville, TN, and came upon this body of water. What caught my eye was the reflections coming across the water. I knew the body of water was not very deep, but the reflections “felt deep.” It was those deep feelings that inspired this piece. I wanted to capture what it was like to have depth as a source, while periodically displaying a shallow surface.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - "No Pretense"</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 16 x 20 inch Price: SOLD Story Behind the Painting: The unique composition of this landscape is what first drew me into it. The scene as a whole, rather than any individual aspect, caught my attention. There were two trees on each side of the uncomplicated, simple structure, and strong shadows were moving across the landscape with an ever so slightly pinkish light. I liked the idea that this was a place where I could go and simply be myself without any pretension or pretext. As I was painting the magnificent countryside, I felt the inspiration was to encapsulate the idea of being in a place where there were no presumptions of any kind. It had to be simple, peaceful, inviting, and it needed to convey the assurance that everything would be okay as I made my approach.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - "Tucked Away"</image:title>
      <image:caption>16 x 20 inch Oil and Mixed Media on Canvas over Board Price: $1150 This painting can be purchase from The District Gallery (thedistrictgallery.com) 865-200-4452 Story Behind the Painting: I stumbled upon this little gem just outside, Sweetwater, TN. This place was not very far off the main road, but it felt like I was drawn back, into its world. I felt like there was something back there to explore, something beautiful and fantastic—almost wonderous. In some ways, it felt like a small child with the wonderment of discovery and the excitement found in the little things. It was these exciting and playful feelings that inspired this piece.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - "Come &amp; Stay Awhile"</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 48 x 72 inch Price: $10400 Story Behind the Painting: I took a cross-country trip recently and was deeply inspired by what I saw when I came upon this Tennessee farmhouse. Although it is in Tennessee, it is so familiar that it could be anywhere. I love so much about this simple country home; the durability of the structure, the patriotism of the flag, the invitation of the porch, the welcoming setting surrounding the structure, and all the feelings that seemed to be associated with what I was seeing. In my mind, the entirety of the picture seemed to carry several stories within it. As I was painting this piece, I wanted to convey the feeling of being able to join friends or family at a place where there is an unspoken invitation to come, hang out and stay as long as you want. I needed the painting to be sizable in order to command the same magnitude of an invitation that big. Thus, the size of this painting is a whopping 48 x 72 inches. Come &amp; Stay Awhile has many noble ideals that are a part of the painting and seem to convey the essence of "American pride and hospitality." I hope that as you view this painting, you can envision the memories you will make as you accept the open invitation to walk up to the house and stay awhile?</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - The Blues Aren't So Bad</image:title>
      <image:caption>16 x 20 inch Oil and Mixed Media on Canvas over Board Price: $1225 Story Behind the Painting: This painting was inspired by the colors of the night. When you first see this painting, you immediately see the color blue. Then you notice a landscape in the night, often called a nightscape. Upon further observation, you will detect other colors inside the blues. In fact, you might even discover other details that you didn’t see at first glance. There is an unfolding as you view this scene. You may realize that several metaphors come to mind as you ponder this painting. Either way, one thing you will discover is that ‘The Blues Aren’t So Bad’ after all.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - "Once Upon A Time"</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 40 x 30 inch Price: $3200 Story Behind the Painting: There seems to be a familiarity with this scene. I like so many things about it: the old building that is slightly leaning to one side, all the individual boards attached to the building, the shadows that are evident as you stand near the still water. I could go on and on. But through it all, visiting the familiar carries with it the possibility of great stories. I like the idea of stories that get generated through encountering something familiar. I think about the stories that someone could tell about this particular place. Although we may never know those specific stories, maybe we could tell our own stories about what could have been. It all starts with ‘Once Upon A Time…’”</image:caption>

It was the remembrance of time quality that really inspired this painting.</image:caption>

The very definition of wonder is a feeling of surprise mingled with admiration, caused by something beautiful, unexpected, unfamiliar, or inexplicable. It was this feeling of childlike exploring that I wanted to capture in this painting. In fact, the painting even has hints and traces of colored crayons throughout, which adds to the element of surprise.</image:caption>

It was an overcast day, and the scene contained something mysterious. I knew I had to paint it, but more than that, I wanted to capture the feeling of the mysteriousness that I first encountered when I saw it. The season was fall and was transitioning from summer into winter. This timing, coinciding with atmospheric changes, added to the mysteriousness of the scene. It all seemed to work together to create this unique painting.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Archive - Ever Changing But Always the Same</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 16 x 20 inch Price: SOLD Story Behind the Painting: As I gathered photo references on an early fall day in Colorado, I saw this small side road off to the right. It intrigued me so much that I stopped my vehicle, got out, and walked down the road a bit. With the overcast skies, I loved the feelings that stirred inside me as I took in my surroundings. It might seem natural to think about changing seasons when fall comes around, but those feelings intensified by the scene unfolding before me. The overcast day and reflective mood caused me to see how things change, even when other things seem to stay the same. I wanted this painting to convey those reflections and the thoughts I contemplated that day as I took the small journey down this quiet road.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Archive - "No Pretense"</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 16 x 20 inch Price: SOLD Story Behind the Painting: The unique composition of this landscape is what first drew me into it. The scene as a whole, rather than any individual aspect, caught my attention. There were two trees on each side of the uncomplicated, simple structure, and strong shadows were moving across the landscape with an ever so slightly pinkish light. I liked the idea that this was a place where I could go and simply be myself without any pretension or pretext. As I was painting the magnificent countryside, I felt the inspiration was to encapsulate the idea of being in a place where there were no presumptions of any kind. It had to be simple, peaceful, inviting, and it needed to convey the assurance that everything would be okay as I made my approach.</image:caption>

In my mind, the entirety of the picture seemed to carry several stories within it. As I was painting this piece, I wanted to convey the feeling of being able to join friends or family at a place where there is an unspoken invitation to come, hang out and stay as long as you want. I needed the painting to be sizable in order to command the same magnitude of an invitation that big. Thus, the size of this painting is a whopping 48 x 72 inches. Come &amp; Stay Awhile has many noble ideals that are a part of the painting and seem to convey the essence of "American pride and hospitality." I hope that as you view this painting, you can envision the memories you will make as you accept the open invitation to walk up to the house and stay awhile?</image:caption>

      <image:title>Archive - Echoes In the Stillness</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 20 x 30 inch Price: SOLD Story Behind the Painting: When I happened upon this scene, I loved how the reflections in the water and the various patterns of the moss and trees created something visually captivating. It was as if what I was seeing was echoing back to me in so many ways. As I was painting, I wanted to depict the same feelings I had with my first encounter; the eyes were on high alert and actively engaged to see all that there was to see, while my other senses seemed relaxed. This created a unique dichotomy inside of me. There is so much to see when you view this painting. Yet there is also a calmness and stillness that comes with the seeing because of the echoes that happen in the stillness.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Board 9 x 12 inch Price: SOLD Story Behind the Painting: This painting was done at Purple Park in Superior, CO. After the devastation of the Marshall Fire, I felt like I wanted create a painting that captured the beauty that still exists in the town of Superior while inspiring hope for rebuilding after the destruction. It may take time to rebuild, but in the "fullness of time," it can happen. In fact, it can be better.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Available Works - Large and In Charge!</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 42 x 42 inch Price: $3800 The story behind the painting: I discovered this barn while driving southeast of Denver, CO. The barn was so massive that I felt small compared to its enormity. Even though the barn is over 100 years old, the owners had just finished painting and fixing it up when I stumbled upon it that day. The structure is simple and defined. I wanted to capture the feeling of massiveness alongside the feeling of being “put together” that the barn seemed to exude.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Available Works - Elegant Interlude</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 16 × 20 inch Price: $1050 The story behind the painting: I really liked the simplicity of this scene. I emphasized that simplicity by using a simple color palette while emphasizing the large shapes within the landscape.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Available Works - Early Morning at the Lone Star Ranch</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 36 × 48 inch Price: $3800 The story behind the painting: This is a ranch near Elizabeth, CO. As I drove to the ranch, I really liked the way the sun was rising in the east. The ranchers were actually out before I got there. They were working hard and taking care of the cattle. The entire scene had the feeling of rising early and working the land. I could feel the sense of accomplishment they had from working their land to make their living.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Available Works - Natures Sanctuary</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 24 × 48 inch Price: $3200 The story behind the painting: I came upon this scene while on a hike in the mountains. It was a beautiful fall day and the colors of the leaves were changing. When I was painting it, I couldn’t help but feel the beauty of the place. It felt like a hidden sanctuary—an oasis away from the busyness of life. I liked that feeling because I knew it was a place where I could be rejuvenated, recharged and reenergized.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Available Works - Symphony No 8 in Full Color II</image:title>
      <image:caption>Mixed Media on Canvas 54 × 54 inch Price: $3500 The Story Behind the Painting: Symphony No 8 is a four-movement symphony that Beethoven wrote in 1812. I thought, “What would it look like to have a symphony in color rather than musical notes?” This painting is really my journey into that place. It reflects joy, movement, fun; really lots of things taking place but at the same time it is full of harmony—just like a beautiful symphony.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Available Works - Mountain Drive</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 36 × 48 inch Price: $3800 The story behind the painting: I was out photographing places in the fall and I saw this road go off to the side in the distance. I liked the feeling that often comes to me with a road trip—a feeling of discovery, excitement and enjoyment of the moment.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Available Works - Anticipation</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 16 × 20 inch Price: $1050 The story behind the painting: I really liked the colors on this particular drive. It was in the mountains and it was beautiful. I liked how the light was shining on the mountains and making the shadows on the road. I was on a winding road but it was worth the extra time to drive that way because of the beauty I saw.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Available Works - Yesterday's Today</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board36 × 48 inch Price: $3800 The story behind the painting: I was way out in the country on a ranch in southern Colorado to look at a barn someone wanted me to paint as a commission piece. While driving from the home to the barn I looked way off to the side on a dirt road and saw this old set of wagon wheels. They seemed to appear suddenly, out in the middle of nowhere. In my mind’s eye, I pictured some of the old west and what it could have looked like but my physical eyes were taking in the beauty of the day. I was happy that I was getting to enjoy the wagon wheels of yesterday today.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Available Works - Remember When...</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 24 × 48 inch This is one of five paintings on the Schweiger Ranch in Lone Tree, CO Price: $2500 The story behind the painting: This is part of a series I did on the Schweiger Ranch in Lone Tree, CO. What really drew me to paint this series was the fact that development was starting to go on all around this house and ranch and the landscape would be forever changed. I am not against development, but I wanted to capture the area as it originally was before it was lost to a new set of houses.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Available Works - Witnesses of Time ( Garden of the Gods)</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 16 × 20 inch Price: $1050 The Story Behind the Painting: These beautiful pillars are located in the Garden of the Gods, which is a state park in Colorado Springs, CO. The rock formations were created during a geological upheaval along a natural fault line. Archaeological evidence called petroglyphs shows that prehistoric people visited this place and that Native American tribes camped in the area. When I saw this beautiful scene, I couldn’t help but think about all the history it contained and how many “eyes” had witnessed this place’s history in some way or fashion. When I was painting this landscape, I wanted to communicate the many years of history that the place encompassed—almost like looking at the inside of a cut down tree and seeing the rings that showed the history and the passing of time.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Available Works - Steamboat Barn</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 34 × 34 in. Price: $2500 The Story Behind the Painting: This is the iconic Arnold Barn that was built in 1928 in Steamboat Springs, CO. There is no doubt that when you visit the area, you are captivated by the sight of this historic building. I loved the angles and the physical structure of the building and wanted to convey that sense of purposeful arrangement in this painting.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Available Works - Rugged</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Canvas over Board 36 × 24 inch Price: $2500 The story behind the painting: This was inspired by a trip to southern Colorado in the fall. The leaves had already fallen and the season was changing from fall to winter. I thought about how this single tree would make it through winter and be ready for the spring and I thought that it had to have a ruggedness to it in order to survive the harsh winter. It had grown by a small pool of water and I knew it had enough in it to survive anything that came along its way. It contained a ruggedness to it that each of us need to survive the seasons of life.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Plein Air Works - Picnic at the Lake</image:title>
      <image:caption>10 x 8 inch Oil on Board Price: $425 Story Behind the Painting: During the Superior Plein Air Event, I created this painting of Purple Lake in Superior, CO. The angles and the reflection on the water drew me to paint this scene. It was such a beautiful day, and as I was painting, I felt like I wanted to have a picnic and enjoy the vista even more. The colors further emphasize what I was feeling at the time—peaceful, relaxing, and simply enjoying the moment.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Plein Air Works - Early Morning at the House</image:title>
      <image:caption>16 x 20 inch Oil on Canvas over Board Price: $1350 (includes frame) Story Behind the Painting: This Opera House is a central building in Central City, CO. During my participation in the annual plein air event, I chose to paint this iconic building built in 1932, the fifth oldest professional opera house company in the country. I rose early one morning and saw how the light was gently sweeping across the front of the building. It felt like there was such promise in the future even though the Opera House had been around for over 90 years. I wanted to capture the feeling of something mature and has been around while at the same time appearing fresh and on the cusp of something new.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Plein Air Works - Teller House Windows</image:title>
      <image:caption>6 x 8 inch Oil on Board Price: $250 (includes frame) Story Behind the Painting: During my participation in the Central City Plein Air Event, I walked past the historic hotel built in 1872 known as the Teller House. I noticed the shadows caused by the anchors near the windows where the shutters once were. Those narrow shadows next to the larger window pane shadows sweeping across the brick building inspired this painting. I loved the equalized uniformity, existing within variations and differences of each window and shadow.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>12 x 9 inch Oil on Board Price: $525 (includes frame) Story Behind the Painting: During my participation in the Central City Plein Air Event, I found this garage with a torn-off door just as I left town. I loved how the shadows moved across in front of me. It brought me back to when I was a kid playing hopscotch on the playground. I felt like simply skipping through those shadows to discover what exciting things I might uncover on the other end. There was freedom to explore something big, even in the smallness of everything around me.</image:caption>

I spent hours viewing the garden from various perspectives, and when it came time to paint Monet's Garden, I chose this particular scene. I loved the way the light was just beginning to peak over the ridge behind me. It felt like things were just beginning, but simultaneously, because of the shifting light, I knew that what I saw and experienced at that moment would soon be gone, and something else would come. It was these fleeting, transitional moments that first captured my attention and inspired me to paint this stunning place.</image:caption>

I loved the shadows as they moved along my walking path. They seemed to add to the contemplative experience invoked by the garden's beauty. The park benches scattered along the path enhanced the sense of calm and reflection. As I was painting this piece, my goal was to capture the same emotions I had felt during that peaceful time in the gardens.</image:caption>

As I drove along the lonely, winding road, I was struck by the expansive openness around me. While painting this piece, I sought to capture the feelings and reflections I experienced on that drive. Although the painting is not large, I wanted the piece to convey a sense that there is far more to the scene than what initially appears.</image:caption>

At first, it felt so simple, yet with that simplicity, there was great expanse. The beauty wasn't just in what I could see, but in the layered experience it stirred within me. I was intrigued by the complexity hidden inside the simplicity. Wanting to reflect those multiple layers of perception, I set out to bring that same multifaceted quality into the painting experience.</image:caption>

What drew me in was how easily it could go unnoticed—almost hidden from the casual observer—which only deepened its sense of mystery. I hadn't been searching for anything in particular on my walk, yet stumbling upon this scene immediately captured my attention. The more I looked, the more layers I began to see. I was struck by how nature could compose something so complete within such a small space, and I knew I wanted to capture on canvas the emotions it stirred in me. It was the delicate balance of intricate detail and quiet simplicity that made the moment unforgettable.</image:caption>

My goal was to use green as the primary visual approach, revealing its multifaceted and depthful qualities. At first glance, you see a green tree—but with closer observation, subtle shifts, variations, and even unexpected colors begin to emerge. Green itself carries the essence of life, and as I explored its richness, the title for the piece became clear, reflecting that sense of fullness and vitality.</image:caption>

Nothing felt hurried; life seemed to move at a gentler pace. While I knew activity was happening somewhere beyond my view, what I encountered felt like a quiet, unhurried slice of life. It was just before sunset, and a soft glow touched the landscape, adding warmth to the moment. In this painting, I wanted to capture the same sense of stillness and gentle beauty that I felt that day.</image:caption>

I was ahead of the storm, standing in a dry place, yet just behind me, the rain was falling hard. I paused my car to take it in, and as I looked back, I felt for the driver behind me—so close to escaping the downpour yet still caught in it. I knew it was only a matter of time before the storm reached me too. When painting this piece, I wanted to capture that tension—the feeling of trying to outrun a storm, only to realize that sometimes you can't. In the end, there's a moment of acceptance: Here it comes, and the only way through is to face it.</image:caption>

Even though the foliage surrounded the aspens, it wasn't so overbearing that it choked the life out of them. These aspens and everything around them were alive. It was as if each plant was getting along and free to express itself without crowding out the others. As I painted, I wanted to capture that same sense of freedom and balance that I felt when I saw this scene.</image:caption>

As I was driving through the area, I noticed the orchard sign and decided to stop and see what I might find. I’m so glad I did as I wasn’t disappointed. The farm was full of people picking fresh apples to take home, and there was a wonderful sense of excitement and freshness in the air. I wanted to capture that same feeling in my painting—the joy, the energy, and the simple delight of the moment. Taking the time to stop was well worth it, and the apples were absolutely delicious.</image:caption>

The sun felt good, and the atmosphere seemed right. It was simply a pleasant happenstance at the time. What captured my attention even more was the way the horses seemed to be enjoying all that grass. From their perspective, there appeared to be no lack of anything—their needs were fully met, and they were simply living in quiet abundance.</image:caption>

I was struck by those contrasting sensations—the chill of the snow and the promise of the sun’s warmth—and it was that very contrast that inspired this painting. I wanted this painting to capture the same initial impression I had at the time, which was of the feeling of the cold snow and the warmth of the sun.</image:caption>

When I first saw this group of sunflowers together, I liked how nature seemed to arrange these in its own way. Consequently, it was the natural arrangement and configuration of the sunflowers that inspired this painting. I felt like nature did it best, so it seemed obvious to title it "Nature's bouquet."</image:caption>

Each reed is entirely different, but at the same time, they work together to create regularity and progression. It is almost like an orchestra, with several different instruments working together to create a beautiful, harmonious sound. My hope was to reflect in this painting the very things that initially caught my eye and drew me into the setting.</image:caption>

The scene was peaceful and still, the horses quietly going about their morning. But when I approached the fence, one hors lifted its head and noticed me, adding a subtle sense of alertness to the otherwise tranquil moment. Rather than breaking the calm, it somehow deepened it. I wanted to translate those gentle, layered emotions into this painting.</image:caption>

Their golden leaves formed a canopy overhead, and it felt like I was being wrapped in pure color. It was so beautiful—so mesmerizing—that I knew I had to paint what I was experiencing right then. The light, the color, the abundance of the trees and leaves—it was almost overwhelming in the best way. I didn’t just feel surrounded by nature; I felt embraced by the colors of the moment.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Board 12 × 9 inch Price: $575 (framed) Available at the Carriage Factory Art Gallery (carriagefactoryartgallery.com 316-284-2749) Story Behind the Painting: There’s something unique about the atmosphere of night, and this nocturnal scene of sheep in a moonlit field captures that tone perfectly. Interestingly, sheep rarely graze after dark—but these seemed unusually hungry, or perhaps just in the mood for a late-night snack. What first caught my attention was the quiet simplicity of the composition: three sheep scattered across a still pasture under a soft, silvery sky. In the darkness, only faint shapes are visible, gently illuminated by moonlight. Even my signature is subtly “ghosted” into the bottom right corner—intentionally understated to preserve the tranquil mood of the painting.</image:caption>

The house structure is located at the Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve in the Flint Hills of Kansas. When I saw this, it was a sunny day and very bright, but the sun wasn't so overpowering that it "blinded" my eyes. There was a softness to the light that I wanted to bring into this painting so that it quietly said everything that it needed to say.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anchored In Nature Show - Hidden Butterfly</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Board 8 × 10 inch Price: $450 (framed) Available at the Carriage Factory Art Gallery (carriagefactoryartgallery.com 316-284-2749) Story Behind the Painting: I was out enjoying nature, taking in the beauty of the flowers, when my eye suddenly caught a butterfly I hadn’t noticed at first. There it was, moving gracefully from flower to flower, just as butterflies do. When I painted this piece, I wanted to emulate those same subtleties I was seeing: the beauty all around and the unexpected joy of noticing something even more beautiful.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anchored In Nature Show - Sunflowers In The Meadow</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oil &amp; Mixed Media on Board 10 × 8 inch Price: $450 (framed) Available at the Carriage Factory Art Gallery (carriagefactoryartgallery.com 316-284-2749) Story Behind the Painting: I have seen many sunflowers in my life, but something about these particular ones stood out to me. I was drawn to the way they interacted so naturally with their meadow surroundings—how their bright faces seemed to harmonize with the grasses and wildflowers around them. Even though sunflowers are common, there was a quiet beauty and simplicity in this scene that felt special, and I wanted to portray those in this painting.</image:caption>

There was a pattern within their randomness that I wanted to convey in this painting. This scene showed vibrancy and energy but also brought a sense of balance and harmony. All of this describes what I was feeling as I painted these blooms.</image:caption>
