An Early Snow


This is a painting which captured the results of an October snow before the farmer had harvested his corn crop. Utilizing a palette knife I was able to capture the way the corn struggled to rise above the snow.

Sunset on the Missouri River


This is a view of the Missouri River from the Yankton side. This small island has been a destination for many Yankton natives. It's lovely to paddle out in your canoe to the beach, bring a blanket and a picnic, and watch the beautiful sunset. The Missouri doesn't seem so wild in this beautiful spot.

Lone Soldier


This is a painting of an old cottonwood tree.

A resting place


This is an image of a small cemetary in Switzerland, Florida. The cemetary is nestled amongst these trees between a country road and the St. Johns River.

A country road in fall


This is an image of a country road in the Yankton area. My friend and I stumbled upon this road while driving around Yankton looking for subject matter to paint. It was painted primarily with a palette knife. I like the way the shadows fall upon the road almost making it appear as water flowing through the trees.
