"Stiletto: Early Morning in July", oil, 20 x 16 in.

Painted on a very hot July summer morning, this companion piece has always been one of my favorites. It's strange how a particular boat or tree, mountain, still life item or memory can trigger an emotional response, generating enough enthusiasm to produce many different paintings.

Field Sketch, "Road to Dubois", 8 x 6 in.

Original field sketch painted in Wyoming, during an early May snowstorm.
This was the source sketch for "Bears in Snow", posted last year.

Stiletto: Sunny Day Before the Storm

I am currently in Baltimore MD., taking care of my dad. It snowed two days ago, with a fine dusting still visible. More snow is predicted in a few days. For a transplanted Southerner, a few inches might as well be a few feet. This painting, of one of my favorite sailboats, was painted on location, a plein air, on a sunny afternoon several years before Katrina.
