"Meander"

"Meander" 9.5 x 19 acrylic
Moving water fascinates me. I'm absolutely drawn to it and can't seem to help myself. The hypnotic sound of cold water tumbling over logs and rocks puts my mind at ease. And I love the wild things that live in and around the streams. Life is good when I'm in these places and I'm certain it's the reason I paint them so much.

"Nittany Mountain Jewel" 8x10 acrylic

"Nittany Mountain Jewel"
Inspired by my fishing trip a week ago, this painting is an attempt to capture the almost outrageous colors of a wild brook trout. It always amazes me that something this colorful can blend into its surroundings so well.
