Welcome to my blog. I live in Austin, Tx., which is a beautiful city. I love painting outdoors here, but I am also passionate about traveling and painting new surroundings. When I travel I paint small canvases. Many times I will take these small pieces and convert them into larger works in my studio. The works you find for sell on my blog are these small works. The larger works you see on the blog, I sell in galleries.

Chateau Julien Winery
I spent the month of August in Carmel, California in order to do a lot of plein air painting. So you will see a lot of beach scenes and wineries on my blog. I was captivated by the light on the turret. I tried to emphasize how the shadow is harder closer to what is casting it and then gets softer as it goes away. Also, I wanted to show how all the green from the vineyard reflected into the shadow of the wall. I'm not sure this shows up enough, so I may concentrate on it more if I do a larger painting.
