In the Light, horse ACEO, original oil painting.

Yes, I like painting on the white of the canvas. I don't think I'll switch back to a toned canvas. This one will come up for auction on September 2, at 6 pm, MDT.

This painting is my horse Class, modeling for me once again. She's in a real place, on Wind Ridge right in front of Split Mountain.

Bull Elk Grazing, Wildlife ACEO

It's almost hunting season and I'm wishing I had one of these all ready in my freezer for next year! Wouldn't he be good?

The Grey's Eyes

or you could call this, Yuppo Experiment! It's painted on plastic, Yuppo brand paper. I absolutely loved doing this painting. The paper is as slick and shiny as anything can get, yet it's kind of soft and the paint seems to stick to it easily. Your brush glides across the surface. I painted on the bright orange side. After I had paint on the surface, I rubbed the handle of my brush through it to get some orange back in. I also took a rough, scratchy brush and drug it across the surface of the paint in some places. It was so easy to sign my name! The part I always hate most about painting.... I just turned my brush around and used the handle once again....

Murphy 'n Class, Walkin' Along. Horse ACEO.

For several days now, I was struggling along with my paintings, then along came this one! It just fell together.

I think the difference is this, I like painting on the white of the canvas and I'd been toning the background red. I hope that's what the problem was, I sure like it when things come together without a hard struggle. I think it makes a better painting also.

Tiny mountains, Rocky Mountain Front miniature art.

Each of these paintings is 2.5 X1.5 inches in size. They're really little! This is the place I love most on all the earth. I guess I've told you that before. The Rocky Mountain Front, west of Dupuyer, Mt. There's a trail head there that goes into the Bob Marshall Wilderness, by taking you around Swift Dam.

Pinto grazing near Square Butte.

This pinto is grazing near the famous Square Butte by Vaughn, Mt. He's a little short coupled, I don't know why I do that!
