Sit And Crumble Ye Weep Thy Teary Eye


I was bouncing around the other night looking for inspiration, and a place to paint. The spot I had originally picked out became obscured by clouds and had lost all of it's pizazz. Somehow I found myself wandering through an old cemetary, finding my inspiration at last.

Rumble Thee Green On Foam Churns


Jumped on the bike and headed out for a quick plein air adventure. I was able to find a nice grouping of rocks nestled among the raging river and it's violent crashing torrent of water.

Oh Burn Thy Rot In Belly Golden Slumber

I was thinking about the Hobbit a bit last night, so I thought I would lay down a quick speed painting.....before the movie comes and burns images in my mind that are hard to erase, or replace with my own.
