12" x 12" The last week of September 2010, I visited the Canadian Rockies with my friends John and Terri Moyers. Most of our trip was at or near Lake O’Hara, which is part of the Yoho National Park. Each and every day we would load up our packs and hike the trails to...
5" x 11" I painted this while teaching an art class at The National Cowboy Museum. I arrived early to prepare for my class at nearby Lake Aluma. It was a foggy morning and I could not resist painting this scene for myself. This painting was shown during the Gilcrease...
12" x 10" In September 2010 I was invited by Veryl Goodnight to join her and several other artists to paint at Mesa Verde. We had the great privilege to actually set up our easels inside one of the ruins, the first time artists have been allowed to paint inside the...
8" x 6" I painted this in the summer 2010. Vishnu’s pointed crown dominates the vistas of the east rim drive at Grand Canyon. Prominent in this view is the Vishnu Temple bathed in late afternoon sun. Most of the formations at Grand Canyon have unusual and exotic...
40" x 60" In the fall of 2003, I was fortunate enough to raft the lower Colorado River, below Phantom Ranch, on a trip with the Grand Canyon Foundation. On this trip were five National Park Superintendents, including Grand Canyon’s own Joe Sylvan. Although a good...
28" x 26" In the fall of 1996 I spent two months travelling and painting in Italy. Seeing these historical sites, which I had previously only seen as a kid in the theatre, in a city I had longed to see all my life. It was beyond rewarding and exciting. This...
6" x 8" In 2002, just prior to the war in Iraq, I was compelled to visit Jordan and tour the country with Landmine Survivors Network. This organization is the one that Princess Diana helped publicize and promote. The trip was an emotional one for me, and I learned...
36" x 36" In 1994 I visited the Indonesian island of Bali. I did several large size Plein Air paintings during this time, such as this one, done in the rice fields while local women were harvesting the mature crops. They would not look at me directly, and seemed...
36" x 36" A large portion of my art in the 1990’s was created in the coastal cities of California. I recall this time period with great fondness. My artistic goal in those days was to paint large scale canvases, en plein air. I found this view, of an old homestead,...
28" x 22" One of the things I absolutely enjoy is painting environmental still-lifes. When the Yuccas bloom in early summer, in Sedona, I am always compelled to drag pieces from my Native American collection to the yard and paint them. I love the quality of the...
40" x 72" The south rim of the Grand Canyon offers little creature comfort in February. Winds relentlessly attack the Canyon as they have for thousands of centuries. This painting is about winter and wind at the Grand Canyon. Cold, clean winds form the southwest slice...
6" x 8" I first saw this dam as a child in 1964, as it was being built. I never envisioned that I would have the opportunity to paint it from the bottom looking up, as I did here, standing on a sand bar in the middle of the river. I've always been awestruck by the...

8" x 6" I first started doing one-subject series as a study of impressionism. Through this process it has made my studio paintings stronger. This kind of day-long exercise connects me to the place, and allows me to later do a large interpretive studio painting of a...

30" x 30" I think that the Navajo reservation is one of this country’s most beautiful places. Within its boundaries are some of the Colorado Plateau’s most spectacular land forms, and the skies are always so big and dramatic. This sunset greeted me as I was leaving...

40" x 40" Oil on Canvas In January, on the rim of Grand Canyon, the sun can be amazingly warm until you step into the shadow of a cliff or a cloud. Instantly the temperature drops significantly and you can feel chilled to the bone. It’s not unusual for snow patches to...
