I only had a vague idea for this painting of a house on top of a hill with trees behind and land tumbling out in front. I wanted to use a smaller rectangular canvas in a vertical format. My sketches were only half formed and I had trouble starting because I didn’t really know where I was heading. I think that this may be why this piece has a slightly wilder feel.

I pushed myself towards using a different color scheme with predominately blues and purples.

Aspen trees! One of my favorite subjects. Although this is a pretty large painting it felt small compared the one I finished last week (“Entanglements.“) This one would fit into my car.

There are some beautiful trees where I enjoy walking in MacDonald Forest at the end of Oak Creek Drive. I have taken some photographs of them. They are huge!
This is the largest painting I have ever finished. We hung it in the living room so that I could photograph it on the wall and it made the 4′ x 3′ painting that had been hanging there look very small indeed.
It is raining and quite dark today so I had to turn on every light I could which made the light look a warm yellow.

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.

I had done some sketches and smaller painting studies of this scene from a winery in Yamhill County a few years ago. These were the fields beyond the winery on which I focused.

Last month, I did a commission for a collector who wanted a painting similar to one I had done previously. He requested a few alterations to the original and a smaller size. I was happy to give it a go. I liked his finished painting so much that I altered the original.
I had received feedback about the trees looking scary and dead (okay winter does remove the leaves) but they all had a point. I don’t want to paint dead and scary … I’m all about happy!
I wish I knew who first said that a painting isn’t finished until it is sold. That is so totally true. If you know, please leave a comment!
Below is the original and the sketch.

I’m gearing up to do a few more larger landscape paintings so needed to do some studies. This is the first one.
Philomath Open Studios – Thank you to all of you who came out to see my work in my studio during this year’s Philomath Open Studios! This is the painting I was working on during the second weekend.

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!

I loved the first “Birch Banter” painting that I did and was very excited to do a sister painting to expand the experience. If you are planning to do a diptych I would suggest doing it all at once rather than one at a time, but sometimes one doesn’t know that the urge will be there to do another one.
Here they are together. I’m hoping to sell them as a set but they do work as well separately.

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 🙂

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.
