Landscape Paintings

So many stories. Each of these was painted on location from Southern California to Greece, from Florida to France and Italy. Most of them are oil on 9x12" canvas panels; a few are 12x16". I usually paint plein air when I am taking a break from large major studio works. Plein air painting is an extraordinary experience: normally when people take a break to go for walks in nature or around town, they absorb the sights, smells, and lights, but it is a temporary experience often forgotten. However, in plein air painting, not only is the experience embedded in one's memories due to the intense focus, the painter also has a permanent record—the painting—of the experience.
