I painted this small masterpiece plein air in Richmond, illinois. I just love the extreme shadows and bright light filtering through the tall trees, marking the hikers' path.

On this site are recent paintings done in oil. I primarily use a palette knife. I love the thick texture and the happy little mistakes that happen along the creative process.

A Little Piece of Paradise ©
This is a plein air painting I completed on Friday. My friend Sherri has a friend who invited us to paint on her beautiful property outside of Harvard, IL . Everywhere we turned there was something exciting to paint......out buildings, ponds, flowers etc.. The woman who owns this wonderful property was so gracious and kind. It was the perfect day; beautiful weather and wonderful friends to paint with!!

Winds A Howling on Lake Geneva ©
This is a plein air painting I did on the shores of Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. Plein Air is a French expression which means "in the open air" and is often used to describe the act of painting outdoors.
That day in Lake Geneva, the wind was blowing so hard that people in canoes on the lake were not even moving an inch while paddling like crazy.....That was so funny to watch. My friends Karen and Jill came out to paint with me that day. It was their first time plein air painting and they had a blast. Their paintings were beautiful!!

Summertime ©
I completed this small masterpiece on a trip to one of my favorite outdoor painting spots; Eagle, Wisconsin. Eagle is a small town with a beautiful hidden park. I try to go there at least every other year to paint.
