Gold Back Bison

This painting is called "Gold Back Bison".  The American Bison is becoming rather symbolic to me.  I like the way this painting reminds me of a woven blanket.

New Bear Painting

Summer Light

Last night was the gallery stroll in Park City.  I had a show opening at Gallery Mar.  The show is entitled "Summer Light".  This show is with Jared Davis, a glass artist.  The show looks great with paintings on the wall and glass on pedestals.  If you are up in Park City Utah, stop by Gallery Mar and give it a look see.  This wolf, entitled "On the Move", is in the show.

Come on by to Utah Artists Hands to see some of my artwork.  The show is called "Critters and a Cause", and it will be hanging for he next month or two.  The show has work by the late Steve Salget and myself.  I have quite a few critters there including this moose entitled "Bull Moose with Red Belly".

I am part of a miniature show at Gallery Mar during the Fourth of July Holiday.  The show is entitled "My Favorite Place".  This bear will be part of the show.  The painting is called "Gold Crossing".   I will be at the gallery on July 7th doing a painting demonstration.  Gallery Mar is located up the street from their old location.  The new location is 436 Main Street in Park City Utah.

Untitled Show

I was asked to be in a show Called "Untitled" at the RIO Gallery in Salt Lake City Utah.  It was put together by Namon Bills.  It turned out to be a fun show where those who attended wrote down titles to the different pieces.  Some of the pieces were selected for a traveling show.  This was the piece I did and will be traveling around Utah for the next year.  A lot of my art has been to places I have never heard of in Utah.

Red Pine

Here is one of my latest landscapes.  It is entitled Red Pine.  I found a lot of interest for me in the abstract color and shape in this piece.  This paiting is currently at Utah Artists Hands.  These following pieces were recently purchased from there in Pam O'Mara's 10th anniversary show.

Landscape

Here is a landscape you can find at Utah Artists Hands hanging in the 10th anniversary show.  The piece is entitled "Bent but Strong".

Utah Artists Hands 10 Year Anniversary

Wintertide

Wintertide is the name of a show hanging at Utah Artists Hands.  Here is a piece that I did that is hanging in the show. 

Inspiration

This is the time of year when I start to look for inspiration for upcoming paintings and projects.  I sometimes get stuck in a rut and have to get my brain going on something inspiring to get the good thoughts flowing.  I seldom if ever find a lack of inspiration with old tractors and trucks.  Here is a nice example of an inspired, orange, hand cranked, iron tired, beast of burden, that worked hard, and has been restored to majestic brilliance.  A very good example of an Alice Chalmers. 

I may not end up painting a tractor, but the image will get my brain happy so I can move on to the next painting happy, hopeful, and ready to use some cad orange. 

Long time no post

It has been awhile since I posted anything on this blog.  I had a bit of a busy time this past fall.  Just to let you know there is a show hanging in park City at Gallery Mar.  It is a strong show with Mary Scrimgeour and Myself.  If you are up there give it a look see.
