Along the Catawba


This painting was one of my first plein aire works. It was a hot Carolina day along the river with other artist friends. It was one of those days to cherish. Good painting and good friends. 11" x 14" oil on canvas.

View from Pilot Mountain


This is another of my paintings from my Blue Ridge series. This painting captures the essence of the lone tree on top of a ridge over looking the mountains. This painting was also completed with the palette knife.

Here is another painting done from the Blue Ridge mountain area in North Carolina. The way that the fog would cover the mountains helped to give the Blue Ridge it's nickname the smokey mountains. This an 11" x 14" oil on canvas, painted with the palette knife.
