Chasing Poppies

7x5 Acrylic on canvas

I found myself chasing poppies recently. The master’s garden is Granbury is a my go to place to find them blooming in the spring time. They were few and far between there. I did find a front yard filled with poppies and other spring flowers. I was thrilled to find and have returned often to experience this rare site.

I have started using small studies as a take off point on new paintings. This was inspired from my painting "Magical Meadow". I'm using a larger palette knife and creating blocks of color in a mosaic pattern. It's a fun process that I am exploring more and more.

I created this after painting "Autumn's Color Spot". I wanted to zoom in and explore this little cove of this waterfront view. The sun was going down creating a warm glow to the grasses. It was fun to use the same source, but with a different view.

We took a boat ride on a warm afternoon in November. It was a rare day when it was warm with low winds. The lake was clear of other boat traffic. The sun was low and sinking towards the horizon. It was lighting up the landscape.  The calm waters made a wonderful reflection that I attempted to recreate.

On the coldest day of the NewYear I created this, dreaming of my Spring Garden. The hope and planning of a garden always starts in the dead of winter. Everything is sleeping and waiting for the renewal of growth. May you find comfort in this season and new year.

It's in the Shadows

14x11 oil on linen

I'm pleased to say this is my third painting that has been selected to show at Dutch Art Gallery during their fall show "All You Need is Love" .

The show opens Saturday, December 4th. Stayed tuned for reception information.


I love it when I am being creative, that's the basic fact about me. I love taking photos, just like I love taking long walks through my neighborhood in Granbury, I must remember that these things bring me joy.

I think, how can I make the most ordinary subject look interesting, think, how much more I can bring to a scene. In this painting the warm morning light made the corner of this house come to life. The shadows are a great contrast with interesting shapes. I fell in love with the light and shadows and knew I had to paint this scene.

"All you need is Love" is about finding a passion and expressing it through the painting process.

I'm pleased to say this painting has been selected to show at Dutch Art Gallery during their fall show "All You Need is Love" .

Since the beginning of the year, I set a goal to paint the children in my family.

This is my great niece, Kylie. Her grandfather loves to be outside fishing or hunting. He is passing on the love to his grandchildren. As soon as he posted this photo of her with her prize catch, I knew I wanted to paint it. It just seemed to fit in with the theme of the show "All You Need is Love." I loved everything about this, from her t-shirt to the fish and lovely lake behind her. Painting it was pure joy.

I painted this on my patio recently. When I started it, the plants were all in the shade. I focused on the shapes and colors. By the time I was an hour into it, the sun popped out and produced strong shadows and light. That is the best part of plein air painting. Things change moment by moment creating spontaneous opportunities.

A visit to Clark Gardens in Weatherford, Texas inspired this painting. I painted on location and still have not finished with all the painting ideas from that trip. It was a hot summer morning and the perfect place to set up my easel. I created a couple while there and use those as color studies. This was painted in the studio using brushes, palette knifes and layers and layers of colorful paint.

I just picked this painting up from Dutch Art Gallery and have listed it on sale, Please check out my website .

Original price was $1500.00 Sale price $800.

I spotted these day lillies at the master garden center in Granbury. It is always a feast for the eyes. I love the bright red/orange of this flower. The distance row of trees was a nice contrast. There is also a large building in site that I choose to leave out! I love using my artist license.

After visiting the gorgeous fields of sunflowers I was inspired to paint them in a larger format. I worked on an older painting that was in the portrait style. It was of large sunflowers and painted in my garden. Painted with a palette knife in many layers.

These fisherman were out early and taking advantage of the opportunity to catch the big one. In the old adage "Red sky at night, sailor's delight. Red sky in the morning sailor's warning".

Jesus said, When in evening, ye say, it will be fair weather: For the sky is red. And in the morning, it will be foul weather today; for the sky is red and lowering. (Matthew XVI:2-3)
