Roses of Robert's Barn

iPhone painting, 10" x 10"

I now have 20 paintings gracing the walls of the tasting room at Denman Ranch, most of them for sale.  I've also done a number of digital paintings of the property, which I hope to show as a collection at some point.  Here is one I did from my iPhone a few months ago.  Life now returns to "normal," where I can FINALLY get back to painting.  Hallelujah!

Backyard Cottonwoods

oil on panel, 12" x 12"

Here's another New Mexico painting dug out of storage, one that I'd forgotten about.  I painted this with a palette knife en plein air in my backyard one brilliant day.  I love the irregularity and organic look of latilla fences of the Southwest, and the view from my backyard of those golden cottonwood trees was just amazing.

From Out of the Blue

acrylic on canvas paper, 12" x 12"

I've been rifling through my paintings in storage as I am mounting an exhibit in the tasting room here at Denman Ranch, and I came across this abstract painting I did in New Mexico in 2018.  Looking upon this with fresh eyes, I quite like it.  Glad I kept it.
