^ Pont du Gard, France
It was a hot day in France. This Roman aquaduct was overpowering in its immensity. It's amazing what the Romans built 2000 years ago.
|
^ Bonnieux, France
Painted on site, the mistrals were howling that day. My students had to hold down my paper, otherwise I would have been unable to finish.

|
|
|
^ Oysterville Cannery
The Oysterville Cannery stands like a sentinel out over the tideflats in Oysterville. It is being revitalized by my friend Dan into the fresh oyster business it is today.
|
^ Lilies and Sunflowers
Lilies and sunflowers are tied together with lyrical line work into a symphony of complementary violets and yellows.
|
|
|
|
^ Nahcotta Snow
We rarely get snow in Nahcotta, but when it happens, magic is unleashed. In this painting, expressive calligraphy waltzes across the picture plane in choreographed harmony.
|
^ Intimate Conversation
Rarely is there anything more pleasant than two lovers alone sharing thoughts only reserved for them.
|
|
|
|
^ Roses
Pink and red roses are a symbol of love, especially backdropped by the purity of white. These roses will never fade or wilt.
|
^ Saignon, France
Saignon presented me with a typical French scene: an outdoor cafe surrounded by stuccoed walls replete with green shutters.

|
|
|
^ Oyster Tubs, South Bend
Oyster tubs are used for harvesting on private oyster ground. They are plentiful and offer a variety of abstract patterns.
|
^ Madeira
Madeira is a Portuguese island off of Morocco. The fishermen hand-drag their boats out of the water on slides constructed on the bottom of each boat. All their boats are brightly colored.

|
^ Columbia Estuary
I pass this estuary many times as I drive to Astoria, Oregon. The waterfowl abound here, along with eagles and hawks.
|
^ Rila Monastery

|
|
|
^ Clamdiggers
Digging for razor clams is a popular pastime on our beaches. Thousands of diggers brave adverse weather to capture the tasty bivalve.
|
^ The Derelict
Painted plein-air, this old-timer fell apart several weeks later. Like other artists before me who documented the passage of old barns, in a similar way I am doing the same with old wooden boats.
|
|
|
|
^ Tidal Harmonies
This large painting captures the exquisite, undulating patterns of our tidal grasses. The design appears subtle, yet it is commanding in totality.
