Brilliant Soliloquy of Winter
48” x 48” Oil on Canvas One of the great opportunities afforded to me by living in Sedona is the short drive from my home to Grand Canyon. Days of extreme winter weather seem to entice me to the canyon’s edge. All alone, enveloped in the silence of a fresh snow at the...

View from Nankoweap Granaries
12" x 19" Oil on Canvas This one-of-a-kind vista can only be seen high above the Nankoweap Delta in Marble Canyon. I was painting while standing next to ancient Ancestral Puebloan granaries. There is an unmatched elegance to this particular view of the Colorado River....

Nativity of Blessed Virgin Mary Chapel: Nocturne
30” x 24” Oil on Canvas Over the years, this chapel has appeared in several of my paintings. I enjoy the unique melding of traditional architecture with a uniquely Flagstaff approach; utilizing local stone, the bell tower and accents are rendered in pink. It seems to...
Illimitable

Enduring Espial
36” x 48” Oil on Canvas During the mid-1990’s I had the endurance and strength to frequently paint large canvases outdoors. This Monument Valley scene is an excellent example of that period of my work. Looking to the west, I painted Camel Butte, the Thumb, and the...

Accentuation

Guardians of the Switchbacks
40” x 70” Oil on Canvas This is the jaw-dropping view that one sees at the top of the switchbacks, on Highway 89A, as you descend south into Oak Creek Canyon and Sedona. In the late 1980’s my paintings experienced a softening of the palette. I now look back to those...
Crimson Shadows
24" x 36" Oil on Canvas For the most part, all of my plein air paintings until the 1980’s were smaller in size. As I became more aware of my own skills and instinctively realized my brain would not learn new skills if not forced into new thinking, I decided that the...
