This painting is a view of a street in Mc Cloud, California with some older smaller houses and sheds with Mt Shasta in the background.

This painting is a view of Pinecrest Lake in late evening in June.


In late May, I was visiting Mc Cloud, California for a family gathering and was able to capture this mill pond view and reflection of Mount Shasta. I did two paintings, one is the smaller 8×10 painting and also a larger 16×20 painting.


This painting is based on a photo of the early morning light in the harbour. The light had just crested the hills on the east side and early light was hitting this older church building in the morning.

While sailing in the Abacos, Bahamas, we did a short stop this year at Manjack Cay. This beach I was able to capture late in the afternoon after a long and windy sail from Marsh Harbour to this anchorage. It was late in the afternoon with the island blocking the light.

This painting is of a dock in this quiet anchorage off of the Eleuthera Island in the Bahamas. It was painted while sailing and cruising the Bahamas in March 2025.

We were walking around an abandoned Club Med site on Eleuthera Islands in the Bahamas and saw this view of coconut trees and the blue of the Atlantic behind them.

This is a painting of a beach on the Atlantic side of Eleuthera Island.

At times I take requests to paint a picture of a scene. In this painting is a scene from Gala River Canyon in Arizona.

We spent two days at this island while we waited out another wind event in the Bahamas on our sailboat. We did a few hikes on this island and they included these wonderful, rugged and steep hikes along Atlantic shore.
This is a painting looking from a high rock on the Atlantic looking down the rugged coast line.
