Happy New Year. Here is my work from 2017. It was a great year exploring the coast and mountains of California. Each painting holds a memory of the experience I had in the place where I created it. Whether it be hiking up a mountain road, then hiking back in the dark, down narrow switchbacks without a headlamp, holding my painting and easel down against heavy ocean winds so that it did not fly away, racing to catch the last moments of light, or trying to get paint to spread in rain and ice, each of these paintings was an adventure, and it was a privilege to spend time in the amazing landscape.
