Riley-Ready and Willing

Riley 11x14

Riley, a member of Bill's family, is a miniature Sheltie. He's always ready to lend a helping paw, from getting the morning paper to mail delivery. The work ethic of  a Sheltie is part of their charm.

Fishing Tales

Catch and Release 11x14


Completed this recent commission for a couple, of their son fishing for Rainbow Trout in the streams out west. 

Coming up with a title can be just as difficult as painting. It needs to complete the story. What would you title this painting.

 Here's a few of the other ideas I had.


Fry, Fry Again

Dreaming of Rainbows

Angling for the Big One

The One That Got Away

Flocking to See the Cranes

Where in the world can you see every crane in one day. 

International Crane Foundation in Baraboo, Wisconsin. This wonder is now open since beginning renovations before covid. While camping near by at Mirror Lake, it was on my list of places to visit again, this time to take photos that would inspire me to paint. Here are just a few of my favorite poses.

I loved trying to capture their graceful nature and made use of some new gold paint to embellish.
