Bay Stallion

Horses are my favorite subject to paint. I did this oil painting pretty much from my head. It helps to have a deep knowledge for how this majestic animal is built.

Belle

I absolutely love the setting in this oil painting. The mare, Belle, couldn't of been more perfectly posed in front of the fence. The play of sunlight on her back along with the cool shadows on her body make for a beautiful painting.

Misty Heather Running Free

Here is yet another painting of my mare, Misty Heather. I painted this pastel shortly after she passed away at 28 years young! The last 6 months of her life, she had arthritis in her front knees pretty bad, so she couldn't trot or even run any more. She is now, in this painting.

Grand Tetons

I love the grandeur of the Grand Tetons! I want to step right into this painting and experience the scenery!

White house with red roof

My very first palette knife painting and it sold right away! I love the light and shadows on this piece as well as the looser style of painting.

Linus looking at chipmunk

My daughter's cat, Linus, has been a subject of my paintings a couple of times now. He loves to sit at the living room window and watch everything that goes on.

Red Rooster

My nephew, Joe, took this photo of one of the many animals on his Mom's farm. I did this oil painting with a palette knife.

Ali

Breyer the black Lab

When this old girl's owner saw the painting, she got very emotional. Breyer is still around, but getting on in years. I tried to capture her expression and personality in this oil painting. It's my hope that when Breyer is gone, she will be comforted when looking at her portrait.

Mother and daughter

This is the second time I've done a graphite of the Mom. The first time was when she was with her dad as a little girl. Now I've done a piece with her daughter, and another generation is born.

Sweetie the cat

Sweetie is no longer with us, but my client said the nicest thing when she got this painting:  "You truly captured Sweetie. I felt like I could pick her up and take her off the painting, it brought me to tears... You make our pets seem like they never left us." I couldn't ask for a nicer way for someone to say they love the art.

Chocolate lab

Another lab! This one was done in pastel on sanded paper. Again, I strived to paint his expression and personality.
