Saturday playday. Two expressions in acrylic on wood panel from a bouquet. A tri-color lily and some dahlias. 20 mins and 45 mins. Then you lay your brushes down and walk away. About 25 artists gathered to generate a large series as a fundraiser to support art residencies at the huge installation center at @buildingfive . Coordinated by @erindengerink . A wall full of art pieces will sell at the @nwmarineartworks show May 30-31, in NW Portland, Oregon. Fun!

Gate To Akumal Beach, 24"x30" oil. A sunny maya morning down in the Yucatan 🇲🇽☀️🧳. It was soul good to escape to the low latitudes. #oregonartist #pdxart #mexico #tropical #beachyhead
Cape Meares Estuary, 12"x12" oil on canvas. Repost w/a few tweaks done to "round" it more. Added a small third tree in the distance for balance, added a few texture strokes, refined some edges. This has a loose impressionist feeling I really like. It creates a bridge to pure abstraction, which opens up a whole 'nother ton of new ideas. 🤙😊#pdxart #oregonartist #landscapepainting #oilpainting #impressionism
Bali Water Temple, 24"x36" oil on canvas. Practicing on a reflection piece, and working out some ideas for an abstract series I have in mind. #oregonartist #oilpainting #landscapepainting #indonesia #pdxart
The Sea at Sarakiniko, 30x40" oil on canvas. Big beach on Ithaki island in the western Greek ocean. Fun abstracting the seascape to the edge of representation. Big dimensions to push the sense of being by it. This is going to be a good year creating new ideas, approaches, palettes. 🤙 #pdxart #oregonartist #pnwart #greece #landscapepainting #nwmarineartworks
10,000 came to the NW Marine Art Show. It was bonkers. People were ready to get into it and have fun! Still buzzing 3 days later. So appreciative to the Unkeles family, @tensor_vanalyst Sam Morse, @littlelarkpdx Christy Nyboer, our visitors, and all the @nwmarineartworks volunteers, fellow artists, musicians, decorators, food/drink vendors, friends who came and more for creating an over-the-top holiday art experience. The smiles, hearts and conversations were a joy. Respect and gratitude. 🤟😊.

This wknd. Art, craft, food, gifts, drink, music, holiday happenings, across a cluster of bldgs. All sorts of heart and good vibes. There's usually a pretty nice firepit too. Industrial NW Portland, free parking, free event.

Descanso, 9x12" oil on wood panel. All quiet on the plateau as the ranchwork ends and the quail start to settle in for the night. Over in the gorgeous Deschutes country in the high desert.

Near Hwy 1, Sonoma. 12x12" on canvas. The sleepier the hamlet, the prettier the vibe. Just north of Bodega Bay, in coastal rural Marin County. Who can resist a red cabin. (A couple of details to add like an old pier post or two in the water then I think that's it...). #oregonartist #pnwart #portlandart #pdxart #artistsofinstagram #impressionism #fineart #oilpainting #landscapepainting #californiacoast #sonoma #americanwest #bodegabay @nwmarineartworks #sold
Corn, Pendleton. 12x12" oil on cradled wood panel. Lots of it along the Eastern Oregon highways this summer. As far as you can see. The clouds were cool, vertical in the heat. #pdxart #oregonartist #artist #pnwart #portlandart #artistsofinstagram #impressionism #fineart #easternoregon #oregon #oilpainting #ranch #landscapepainting #americanwest @nwmarineartworks #sold
Cape Meares Estuary, 12x12" oil on canvas. October days at the Oregon coast, just goldarn peaceful. This and other recent pieces will be on display at the @nwmarineartworks Holiday Art Show & Open Studios, Dec 6-7 in NW Portland.
