South of Fort Collins, Colorado.                           11 x 33"                     Acrylic on panel 
 
    I was recently asked to speak on Western Art at the University of Colorado. In the course of our discussion I was asked why I am doing these paintings and I was hard-pressed to find an answer. I love the plains of Colorado and Wyoming and am fascinated by the skies we see in the West. But I have come to realize that it's that line that defines the meeting of Sky and Earth that I am most interested in.

This piece is coming together nicely but I can see that it still needs a bit of work.

"Wyoming"

This watercolor shows a view of eastern Wyoming, approaching the Black Hills. Though not as obvious as western parts of the state, the eastern parts of the Cowboy State are very beautiful.
