“On the Park Point bridge”
9×12 oill on panel – private collection
I have been fascinated with the aerial lift bridge since seeing it for the first time over seven years ago. Now that we have been spending our summers on Park Point, I have finally gotten around to approaching this marvel as subject matter. I am so taken by it that I intend to keep painting the bridge in all available light. This little jewel turned out to my liking. I hope you enjoy it too!

Along the Conejos River near the New Mexico border at a fly-fishing cabin of an old friend and master painter/outdoorsman Andy Peters. Just about as good as the western life can get. Of course there is always work to be done.

So I have been combing the central Iowa landscape looking for those special little places in that special early or late light. Low and behold this day presented a nice little jewel of a moment.

“Chasing Bob Dylan”
16×20 oil on panel
It’s true. Last year (2014) while in Duluth MN. we tailed Bob Dylan riding in the back of an old Bentley with some of his friends. He was playing that night in Duluth and stayed at the Fitgers Hotel where we saw him go in. We could see and hear the concert from our house. It poured like hell.
“Are you Following Me”

I find that cows are very curious and nervous around bipeds tracking them down for photo ops.

18×24 oil on panel – pending
I love painting skies with clouds. and cows make for excellent subject matter here in the midwest. You will see a lot more Iowa landscape paintings from me this summer.

The streets offer up so much data. Squinting barely diminishes the bouncing lights.
