Deliquescence
36" x 28" This painting holds a special place for me, as it was one of the first paintings of mine to be seen at The National Cowboy Museum’s Prix de West. The title is derived from the fact that while I was painting this scene, on location, the warming of the day...

Grand Canyon’s Timeless Charm

Late Morning-Pipe Springs Overlook
10" x 8" 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...
Winter’s Levity
50" x 80" One of my greatest pleasures is to show up at Grand Canyon as a cold front is moving across the region. In this painting, I have tried to reflect the playful dance of light as the sun peeks in and out of the moving clouds. This is a view from Powell Point,...

Lake Aluma
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...
Last Light on Vishnu
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...
Conquistador Isle
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...
Ponte Sant’ Angelo and the Tiber River
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...
Temple of Hercules
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...
The Rice Fields of Bulan
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...
Santa Barbara Prospect
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,...
Treasures Discovered
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...
The Siege of Time
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...
Glen Canyon Dam
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...

Mercurial Sun of January
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...
