Solitude
This painting represents, for me, the solitude and grandeur of the fly fishing experience. I can't tell you where it is exactly (a cook never shares his "secret sauce" now does he!). It could be anywhere in Utah, Wyoming, Idaho or Montana ... one of my special places of solitude and relaxation. The fly fishing is legendary and the solitude extraordinary! Enjoy ...
Number Eight @ Red Ledges
This is a view of the Number Eight hole on the Red Ledges golf course in the Heber Valley here in Utah. This particular view is off of the back deck of a beautiful custom home we just completed. Its another attempt to capture a grand vista on canvas. Unfortunately, try as I may, I'm not sure that I got it exactly right, but it was fun trying!
Beautiful Bear Lake
For several years now our daughter-in-law has wanted me to do a painting of a beautiful lake in northern Utah called Bear Lake. It is located in a high mountain valley and the view from the top of the pass as you enter the valley is truly spectacular. Our grand daughter recently took a great photo from that specific spot so I could have some reference material from which to base my painting. I did my best to capture the unique turquoise color of the water and the grandeur of the vista.
