Fall 2026

A small watercolor I did in my sketch book. It is of one of the "Colony Barns" in winter here in the Matanuska Valley in Alaska.  I painted it from photo of the Barn I saw on line I added my own trees, mountains and grass that some how sticks out of the snow in the winters here. The figure I added as well.

 

Below is another watercolor I did in my sketch book. I was waiting for pizza out in the car and did a quick pencil drawing of the pizza kitchen. I didn't want my pizza to get cold.Later I filled in the color from a photo I took with my phone.

Summer 2026

I have been interested in painting old wooden boats of Alaska. Below are two that I finished recently in 2026. The boats are visible from the road in Homer, Alaska.

This is a quick watercolor sketch I did in the Matanuska Valley, Alaska. It is of a morning sunset. I was quickly trying to capture the lighting intrigued me.

This is a sketch of a spring snowy scene here in Alaska. I liked the way the afternoon light was shining on the snow. It is of a gully on the side of a country road. We had a long winter this last year.
