I’ve been busy finishing up a backlog of commissions for the past several months and have finally wrapped them up. One of those I’ll be able to reveal next Monday once I’ve delivered and unveiled it for the organization who purchased it. Meanwhile, this landscape is fresh off the easel and something that I could share with everyone right now. The remainder of this year will be spent working on more general landscapes like this so as to build up some original painting inventory available for purchase and working on new Seminole themed art for the Brighton Field Day Festival in February.

Between ranch work and multiple other ongoing projects, I’ve not had time to share any new paintings in quite some time. This painting of Mrs. Josephine Huff is fresh off the easel and will be going to the family very soon. The very subtle color variations in the bias tape were fun to capture and the background or base fabric featuring a pattern of corn on the cob tested my patience, lol. All in all, it was a pleasure and indeed an honor to capture her likeness on canvas.

Thanks to the fine folks of Quincy and Gadsden County for having me as a presenter Saturday for their Opening Day program. If you’re in the area, be sure to get by and visit while the exhibit is running. The Gadsden Art Center and Museum is well worth the trip!

*Update* “Cypress Harem” at 2️⃣7️⃣5️⃣ is sold

With Spring Turkey season kicking off tomorrow morning across much of Florida, it seemed like the perfect time to share these two prints framed up and ready to hang on someone’s wall. First come, first served basis, drop a comment or send a DM. Take one or take the pair.

Okay folks, here’s the full reveal after I teased everyone last week. “Under Sweetgrass Skies” is a 24x36 original oil on canvas. It sold immediately here in the first few hours on opening morning at Brighton Field Day Festival, but we will have prints available for those interested. I’m grateful for the ability to represent Old Florida and the cultures that make her so special. And thanks to all of you for the continued support!

We’re making final preparations for the festival this coming weekend. Make plans to stop by for a look at the new original oil paintings and all the prints we’ll have available. From Seminole culture to ranch and landscape scenes, we capture Old Florida on canvas for you to enjoy in your home or office.

I recently finished up a new painting that will be available in a few weeks at the Brighton Field Day Festival and Rodeo. I’m not sure I want to do a full reveal ahead of time, so for now I thought I’d do a tease showing one small piece of the larger image. Even with it being a detail, some of you will recognize the cultural significance of the subject right away.
