The Willamette Valley is full of farms and fields. I am inspired by the buildings and farm land surrounding me and take great liberty with the subtleties in the land with rolls, sweeps, caligraphy and color.

This painting is a study for a larger one that I am doing. The form factor is going to be different so I did a sketch for the study, the small painting and another sketch for the large one. I’m painting the large one right now.
Below are the sketches for both paintings. You might notice that I don’t adhere to my original sketch but make changes as I move through the painting process. Painting the small one helps me to come to some decisions before I do a larger one and hopefully waste less paint!

This painting was started on the site of Rohner’s Warehouse on Peoria Road. It is the second painting that I have posted from this site. This is the view of their neighbors looking north.
I still have to paint their dog 🙂

This painting was started on the site of Rohner’s Warehouse on Peoria Road. It is a very scenic spot right on the Willamette River. I started two paintings there, did a number of sketches and even took photos of their dog! There will be more paintings to come.

Another painting started on site at Boston Mills State Heritage Site in Shedd, OR. I stood on the road bridge to get this scene and was amazed at how much traffic there was on this small country road.
I think I might create a large painting from this one.

I pass this farm about five days a week and for the last few weeks they have had these huge hay bales in the field. I really wanted to paint the scene before the bales are removed so I finally took a few photos and did some sketching.
I did something different than my usual procedure and worked on a colorful under-painting. One occasionally gets some interesting surprises doing it this way. I sketched with black gesso on top of this.

This is a large painting I’ve recently completed for collectors in Arizona. I’m very pleased with the way it turned out so I hope they like it!

A few weeks ago I was painting at Finley Wildlife Refuge. This is the second painting that was started at this location. It is the Cabell Lodge which was built circa 1912 and is now used by the headquarters office for the Willamette Valley National Wildlife Refuge.
The little black cat I added for a touch more life as I didn’t see anyone else around and it seemed a shame that such a fine building didn’t have a little more activity.

The Art Guild to which I am a member issued a challenge to express an image of downtown Corvallis on 2nd between Madison & Monroe. Last week I went downtown. There was a fiercely cold wind and I had a bunch of other errands to do so took only about four photos but I did see these bikes so my decision was easy. We will be showing these paintings, drawings or other expressions at the meeting on Monday.

This painting was partially created during the Open Studios tour. People were able to see it take form. I know those during the first weekend really wanted to see the final painting … so here it is!
Yes, it is an actual place in the Portland, Oregon area but unrecognizable it its incarnation here.

This is a study for a larger piece that I am working on right now. Everyone who visited my studio today during Philomath Open Studios got to see the larger piece in the very first stages with the black gesso before the color goes on. Tomorrow I will start to put in the transparent color and it will go through some very ugly stages. I might have to put a sheet over it at this point!
Even though I was trying to hide the study so that I could work from it for the large one, I couldn’t help showing it to people as I explained my process. It was sold, but I’ll ship it to her when I finish my large painting.
If you are in the area, today and next weekend (November 2 & 3rd, 2013) my studio will be open for the Philomath Open Studios Tour.
