More "River"

we are in the midst of a good rain, not without some concern for flooding and debris flows near the burn areas. My studio is located in a "red" zone, so when the weather threatens, we go into evacuation mode.

2 more works from "The River's Journey" - we each have a larger oil painting in the show. It's a nice contrast to the many small gouaches.






















river curve, drought  15x30"  oil on canvas, framed      $1750.00  SOLD


























river curve, after big rain   15x30"  oil on canvas, framed     $1750.00



there is a beautiful catalog available for "The River's Journey". It includes many of the works from the exhibition as well as other works not in the show. There are wonderful and informative essays as well.



It may be purchased through the Wildling Museum for $24.95 or on Rose-compass.com

paintings from "The River..."

These are my paintings for "The River's Journey" at the Wildling Museum - it's a beautiful show and each of us in the Rose Compass has about 25 pieces in the exhibition - 156 pieces total, plus 2 from our guest artist Thomas Paquette.

All the following works are gouache on archival watercolor board, matted and framed.
Colors may not be perfect - always hard to photograph work.
