Oil Painting - "Misty Morning Paddle form Orca Island"

"Misty Morning Paddle from Orca Island" 11" x 14"  

Oil on panel.  SOLD

My Alaskan summer is soon to be over.  We have been busy with guests at our rental cabins in Humpy Cove since early May.  I have managed to paint only a small number of new paintings while out there this year and this is one of them.  We have had many misty mornings with low hanging mist drifting in and out of view around the mountain tops.  The mountains in this painting are also islands that we see in the distance from our property in Humpy Cove, Alaska.

8"x10" Oil one panel.  Available.

Right at the end of downtown Seward, AK I saw this man sitting on a rock taking pictures.  The wind was blowing off the ocean and the sun was bright.  I liked the brightness of the scene and the strong sunlight.  Lowell Pt. is the land form in the near distance.

Thanks for viewing my art!

Oil Painting - "Moody Blue"

Merry Christmas dear friends!  I'm down in  Laguna Hills, CA visiting family for the holidays.  This is one of the large paintings I created in my home studio during the month of October.  This is the kind of scene I see when I travel to our rental cabins which we operate during the summer months.  

I hope you are all enjoying the holidays.  Thank you for viewing my blog.

15" x 30" Oil on gallery wrapped canvas.  SOLD

Dramatic views are pretty much a standard around this town but I thought this particular one was surely worthy of the title.    This street is lined with houses whose occupants see this fabulous view on a daily basis.  The changes in light, clouds and colors are beyond imagination.  I have to say,  I am grateful to live where I can see such beauty.

8" x 10" Oil on panel.    Hello my friends!  I have been silent for a long time now.  I never thought I would go this long without posting.   I'm finding time to paint again and I'm ready to share.   This painting of a guest fishing off the shore of Orca Island holds a pleasant memory of the lovely warm summer we had this year.  We experienced warm sunny days and crystal clear water sparkling in the sunlight.  It was a summer to remember.

Glacier View

6" x 12" Oil on wood panel. Available.    This is Godwin Glacier peeking through the mountains.  This glacier is just across the bay form my town (Seward).  It is tucked behind the mountains so it cannot be seen from town ... only once you get out in Resurrection Bay can you see it.  It is such a pretty sight.  I painted this about two weeks before Christmas.  Well, I have had a nice brake with my family over the Christmas and New Years holiday.  I am painting every day again starting today!
