Cheerful sunlit skies gently bask a delicate verdant landscape with accents and shadows while pinkish ethereal clouds slowly inch across the distant horizon.
 

This composition celebrates the mystery of natural networks of white oak branches during wintertime.
Trees are symbols of life, energy, health, growth and strength. Trees are the longest living organisms on the planet.
In winter, the White Oak loses its leaves to conserve water and better survive winter weather conditions—allowing it to renew and regrow in the springtime.

I did this painting during the Covid lockdown as an escape.

This landscape composition features a lake view panorama celebrating an expansive azure spring-fed lake yielding to distant verdant forestry under a delicate blue sky accented with dancing white-tipped clouds. 
This painting unleashes many primordial sentiments through its symbols:  water as the source of life itself, purity, and fertility; skies associated with the spirit, peace, and heaven; and forests as the mysterious and unknown.  

This seascape composition features a calm turquoise ocean below soft mid-day white-capped clouds. In nature, turquoise swirls indicate the presence of marine life, tracing the flow of water currents and eddies—which typically reach their peak abundance in springtime.

This early autumn, long and sweet highland landscape, perched against a quiet country road proclaims timeless tranquility and absence of mortal change.Verdant mid-day fields echoed by terracotta contours yield to a vast evergreen woodland and distant lilac hills.The viewer experiences the pure magnificence of nature's peace and a world without end in this serene landscape.

This landscape is an area in the Austin, Texas Green Belt.
 

 

 

This peaceful seascape composition captures the tranquility of a golden beach and changing skies in springtime.
Indeed, physical oceanographers observe that the ocean has weather and seasons, much like the atmosphere. Springtime is often a time of great change, turbulence, and productivity. Increasing sunlight, nutrient enrichment from land and upwelling from the deep, and changeable atmospheric weather all conspire to color the ocean surface with interesting patterns.

This seascape composition features a regatta of playful sailing yachts flouting their colorful spinnakers under joyful summer skies on a rich azure seas.  

This lovely two-part landscape set captures the soothing natural features of the Caribbean. Synonymous with paradise, this region features rich sandy beaches, soft tropical skies, calm winds, lush verdant vegetation, and widely divergent palette of blues. Geographically, the Caribbean spans an area of over one million square miles and comprises more than 700 islands, islets, reefs, and cays. These landscapes give the impression of private and pristine shorelines as glimpsed from a passing luxury yacht.

Soft azure waves gently roll against a golden sandy beach while delicate white trimmed clouds in the foreground hint at an afternoon squall on the distant horizon.
 

Beaches are always changing. They are alive. As an ecosystem, they are home to birds, crabs, clams, fish, grasses, algae, and countless other life forms. Miraculosly, they consist of the coarse erosion products of land (sand and pebbles) and sea (shell and coral fragments)—subject to the whims of winds and currents.
The shoreline where the land meets the sea is constantly changing.
In this composition, gentle rolling seagrass and sandy golden beaches give way to an expansive azure oceanscape.  Perhaps this is the best living embodiment of change.

The spirit of maritime wonder and adventure pervade this two-part nautical series celebrating sailboats against a profoundly rich sea and fair sunlit skies.  The human innovation of connecting wind and sail led to epic adventures such as the Iliad and the Odyssey, the rise and fall of great empires, and the exploration of the new world.  These primal forces now manifest themselves in modern times in sporty and leisurely pursuits in our recreational sailing yachts.

This composition embodies the old adage “Pink sky at night… sailors delight; Pink sky at morning… sailors take warning!” But, at the same time it, provokes the question whether tranquility or turbulence are rising on the tide.
 

This striking seascape records the rugged natural beauty of Puget Sound—unquestionably North America’s most pristine estuary. The Sound was discovered in 1792 by George Vancouver and named after Peter Puget, a French Huguenot who became an officer in the British Royal Navy. It is the result of the melting retreat of the 6,000 foot thick Vashon Glaciation about 15,000 years ago.
This composition captures the striking colors, rocky jetties, swift currents, and dramatic vistas that characterize Puget Sound.
