Van Gogh does the PCT 18x24in cradled birch panel. $700 This is an unusual one for me in that its purely based on my imagination informed by many years of hiking in the cascades beginning as soon as I could walk. It is also an experiment with a technique I used Sumi ink for the background and layered transparent oils over it leaving the black showing through.

18x24in.  On cradled birch panel with 1 1/2in edges stained and than finished with spar varnish.

Phillips Arch in Escalante National Monument

Phillips Arch, Escalante National Monument. 
Original currently available through the Berkano Gallery
For Prints Contact Me  18x24in. oil on canvas. Created using with many layers made  transparent with gel medium. This allows the  orange background to show through.   Many people have painted the southwest, but nearly everyone paints the patterns of light on the rocks and ignores the complicated crisscrossing in the rocks themselves.  I think these patterns are an essential part of the beauty of the place so I experimented with different techniques until I found a way to accurately depict them. There are up to 6 transparent layers in places.

 I was fascinated by interesting shape the echoes the curve of the stream, and the abrupt light change on the other side that made it feel like a  magic portal.

​This is the view from "Trail" nto Cayote Gulch. Trail in this case meaning near cliff  face I descended carefully holding onto a rope. I took the reference image for this painting with my cellphone holding onto the rope with my other hand trying really hard not to drop it.  Its hard to get a feeling for how big this arch is from a photo, its enormous.  Conveniently their was a hiker passing by.  He is the tiny speck through the arch next to the tree in the middle of the arch.

Jacob Hamblin Arch. 18x24in. Price $800 SOLD

This Arch is mind bogglingly big. I think it would be one of the most well known in the southwest if you didn't have to rent a 4x4 and drive 50 miles down a beat up washboarded dirt road, navigate across sand and rock hiking without a trail, and then climb down a  near vertical face holding onto a rope on a to get there.  For perspective the tiny speck on the rock in the middle of the steam is my father and those are full grown trees about 80 feet tall.

​Volunteer Park Sunset. 
18x24 oil on cradled birch panel.  1 1/2in reddish brown stained wood edges.  
I painted this scene because I was fascinated by the cracks on the wall of the reservoir and the patterns they made reflected on the water.  This combined with the glowing sunset light captures an unusual angle on a well known Seattle location.
