“Now That’s Longs Peak”
24×30 oil painting 1.5″ deep museum wrap $2500
The title came from one of my favorite Lakota Sioux artist friends. It was quite a dynamic scene to see coming out of the Glen Haven road driving down into Estes Park.
Rainy Day in Estes
En plein air oil painting $400
I got soaked for a few hours but it was quite an experience. It has a refreshingly feeling for a quite environment in a den or bedroom. Fun
Roaring River at the Alluvial Fan
30×40 oil painting. $2200
This painting was done a few years after the Lawn Lake flood and shows little plant growth because of the scouring effect of the flood. It has been interesting to document scenes like this at different times in watercolor and in oil.
Quiet Time on Fall River
22×28 oil painting in a black frame with a black linen liner. $1800
This is the largest of the Quiet Time painting series so far. One of the few paintings where it shines in subdued light.
Clear day on Longs Peak
16×20 oil painting. $650
This is a more gentle painting, strong in a quiet way.
First Snow
30×40 oil painting in high quality “Colorado Framesmith” gold frame $2100
That overlap in time when the beautiful bold color of the Aspen is enchanced by the clean crispness of the snow.
Fall River below Sundance Mountain
16×20 oil painting in rustic wood frame $800
I have painted this scene in many ways to explore and discover the beauty in the complexity of the mountains. I like this one because in its expressionistic looseness it directed me to do the large more realistic documentation of the wilderness scene with all its anomalies and geological remnants which reflect its growth.
Longs Peak in the Morning Sunlight
11×14 oil painting 1.5″ deep museum wrap painted edge $600
An early morning riser I see the mountains bathed in glorious unexpected colors.
Painted with bold and direct expressionistic strokes
Enchanting Rest Stop in the Botanical Gardens
En plein air 11×14 oil painting $400
My son and I spend a lot of time in the Gardens and this was a good place to enjoy the flowering crabs across the path.
Mountain Stream
24×36 oil painting museum wrap 
$6000 This is the largest and latest version of this scene with lots of expressionistic brush strokes implying the elements (especially the water flow).
Memories…sometimes paintings document friendships and images at the same time. “Jim Creek” near Ward, CO. I always think of a gentle old miner friend (Amanda’s dad) from Nederland and his heart of gold as I hike west from the old highway stone bridge on the Peak to Peak Scenic Highway.
