Magic Hour in the Rockies
In the recent years, living in the San Juan Mountains and also spending alot of time in the San Luis Valley surrounded by the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, I feel that both areas inspired this dreamy mountainscape.

Golden Mountain Sunset
Having lived in Colorado since 2012, I’ve been enjoying incredible mountain sunsets ever since. Recently, I’ve explored this theme in a few new paintings. This one was inspired by the mountains near where I live. Some are really jagged and wild looking, including Chimney Rock which is near Pagosa Springs where I live.
Purple Lupine Meadow
This painting is inspired by a peaceful early morning in a mountain meadow. The sun is emerging from behind the mountains and the fresh morning light is beginning to light up the cool, mountain landscape where the meadow is covered in wildflowers, including the lovely purple lupines.
Pink Paintbrush Meadow Painting
This painting is inspired by a calm evening in the mountains. It is set in a mountain meadow where pink paintbrush flowers are abundant.

The vivid colors in the sky beautifully compliment the colorful and abundant wildflower-field set against the glowing, purple mountains.
Tranquility
This is an original acrylic painting inspired by early mornings and evenings in the mountains when everything feels calm and the colors are soft and gentle inspiring feelings of peace.
New Minies Will Be Available End of March
At the beginning of this year I began a new series of small paintings: 6″x8″, 6″x12″ and 8″x10″. These are the first 5 of the group. I plan to paint another 6-9 for this series. Then I’ll choose a group to display at a local gallery here in Pagosa Springs.
Mystical Snowy Night in the Mountains
I live in the San Juan Mountains in Colorado. The pristine wilderness of these mountains is awe inspiring anytime of the year. But in the Winter, when the snow blankets these Rocky Mountains, the scenery is Mystical. The mountains look immaculate, untouched, frigid yet breathtakingly beautiful and full of mystery. The skies here are filled ...
Night Sky Minies
Here is my latest mini series of painted landscapes. I explored the concept of remote mountainous places where on a clear night the sky is filled with infinite stars.
Alpine Night Painting
This painting was inspired by clear nights in remote mountain environments where the sky is filled with infinite stars.
Winter’s Night
Colorado is a true winter wonderland, a truly magical place when the Rocky Mountains are veiled in fresh snow. I’ve also lived in areas where the night sky is pretty spectacular. With this new painting I wanted to combine some of my favorite aspects of experiencing Winter in the mountains.
