Hills above Curlew Lake

"Hills above Curlew Lake", 11 x 14 In, Oil on Panel

In June I traveled to Republic, Washington, for one of our Plein Air Washington paint outs. This is a beautiful area, remote from the intensity of the I-5 corridor in Western Washington, with expanses of fields, hills, mountains and beautiful lakes.

Lynwood Center

"Lynwood Center", 9 x 12 In, Oil on Museum Board

I am happy to say that this little painting won First Place in the Winslow Art Center Plein Air Competition this last weekend on Bainbridge Island! My painting buddy, Jeanne Edwards, and I were checking out the shoreline on the south end of the Island and decided we wanted color--so back to this delightfully small business center with its outdoor cafes and old time theater marquee. I am still exploring the wisdom of the palette knife--the impetuous shapes of color with a lot of paint! My sincere thank you to Lois Griffel, the juror of the show, for supporting my journey with the award! Jeanne also did a wonderful painting of the same scene, which immediately sold off the wall at the show! Thank you to Martha Jordan, Director of the Winslow Art Center for this intense experience--we had to submit our daily paintings, framed, by 4 pm on the day of painting! No time to think twice or angst about it. Thank you to Syliva Carlton, Bainbridge Island resident and founder of Plein Air Washington.

I'll have to find this painting and see if it is as dark and scrappy as it seems, because it suits me today. This is another painting from the summer of 2018.

Utah Valley Light

"Utah Valley Light", 10 x 12 In, Oil on Museum Board

There are so many places to paint in Utah. Sometimes I don't quite remember the exact location of a painting--especially two years later. But when I discovered this one in a pile of paintings, I liked the atmosphere. Since we usually go to Utah in April or May, this must have been painted from photo and memory
