Portrait of My Mother

This body of work is far less narrative than my previous work. This is a portrait of my mother planting tulip bulbs among the aspen trees in the back yard.

Autumn Bells

I have painted the Maroon Bells near Aspen several times. I have depicted their many moods and changing looks with the different seasons. They are monumental icons of my life growing up there and are filled with memories. They are my hometown cathedrals. There is a completely different painting underneath this layer, one of my mom's favorites in fact. She was very upset that I painted over it. If you look carefully, you can see parts of the old image peeking through.

The other painting is of my home in Boulder and dogs.

Below is a painting that evokes the old Olympic Lift on Aspen Highlands althought the scenery is made up.
