“Eventide, Psalms 141:8 ” 14 x 18 Oil on Linen

The frame for the Niagara project is well underway. The assembly is done and I am applying traditional hide glue gesso. The bole will be applied soon and then I can begin the water gilding with silver leaf. Then I will add a series of patinas to antique and warm the silver. It is exciting to see the end is near.

Here is a great post to share:

"Clearing Storm, Proverbs 22:11" 16x20 oil on linen, sll 2014
A painting from memory - inspired by many fishing trips up North.

This is an "improvisational" painting I recently completed. I let the painting evolve itself - attempting for a spiritual connection to past outdoor experiences and emotions experienced.

"Evening Hatch, Psalms 71:5 " 15x18.5 oil on linen

Josh Larock and I got up to paint every morning at 5:00am while staying at Chateau de Napoule. I remember well the light we were treated to this fine moring. A very special treat...
