Newer paintings...from October
Thursday/January 21/2016 Filed in: painting
Here are some images of the latest paintings I made, although they are from October. I’m currently on an extended sabbatical from painting, as I work on some new projects. These paintings incorporate hummingbirds, which are sacred birds in many Native American cultures. Often the birds symbolize prayer, the spirits of those that are deceased, or specifically God’s presence. I’ve also expanded to using gold leaf in two of these.
“The Prayers of the People”
“Hummingbird”
“Rocky Mountain National Park”
**This painting is currently missing! Sad story: I mailed it for a show in Houston in November and it never arrived. Right after I mailed it, I was in a bad car accident and lost the tracking ticket that had been in my car. This painting is still missing.

Encaustic and drawing on Ampersand Encaustic Board
Just finished this one Monday and going a new direction...more bright colors. This one is influenced by Thomas Merton, whose book “Seeds of Contemplation” is always open in my house. The drawing is from a photo taken in 2011 in Lamy, NM.

A New Landscape

I’m getting ready to move to Colorado, and therefore finishing up some of the last paintings that I will do during my time in New Mexico. Here is a little landscape that I finished last night.
