Good Morning. I’ve got a few important announcements that I’d like to pass along. I’m happy to announce an active show schedule for this year. If you happen to be in the area of any of these, I welcome you to stop by and get acquainted. As you know by following along so far I just returned from the Plein Air …
The Plein Air Convention in Tucson, Arizona is coming up next week. I mention this because I’ll be there. This will be the 4th Plein air Convention. The previous 3 were in Monterey, CA. I advertise in the Plein Air Magazine so I thought I should go to the convention to see what it is all about. New development for …
I spent some time between playoff games this past weekend planning my plein air show schedule for 2016 on a large “year at a glance” wall calendar. I blocked out the days of the shows and entered the entry deadlines to help keep me stay on track. I have to do this because I am notorious for forgetting to meet the …

Well it’s been sometime since I felt wooed by my Mistress of the North. Thinking back over the last couple of months I guess it’s because I’ve had some other things on my mind. In other words, I’ve been preoccupied you might say. This isn’t to say that I completely shut her out by any means, but I will admit …
Well, it’s that time of year again. Happy New Year! Time for everybody to renew their membership to the gym, forget the past and move into the future. Have you been thinking about your New Year resolutions? Yah, me neither. I’ve tried that and it only works for a couple of weeks or days at best. Sometimes just hours. Why …
Just finished up a couple of little 6×8 oil paintings from the Long Ride North this summer. The two latest additions to the collection are one of the Matanuska Glacier, Alaska and the other is from Haines Junction, Yukon. The Matanuska Glacier is in Alaska on the Glenn Highway about 60 miles or so Northeast of Palmer, Alaska which is …
