Squirrel

6"x6" acrylic on canvas board

This squirrel has been hanging out in the tree in our front yard. He was the perfect subject for this little painting.

Horse Profile

8"x10" acrylic on canvas board

I always enjoy painting, but there is something about painting a horse. I am fascinated by the muscles and the structure of the horse. The way the light glistens in contrast to the shadows.

Lamar Valley

24"x12" acrylic on gallery wrap canvas

I thought I would change things up a bit and paint a landscape. This painting is based off of my photo reference from a trip to Yellowstone. I really enjoyed myself and had fun painting this landscape. It was  a challenge for me.
