I am please to announce a showing of my work at the Gallery 126, Dawson Community College in Glendive, Montana that opens this week and runs through February 25, 2011. It is titled "Through the Dust - Colors of the West" and focuses on the contemporary cowboy and the color and action of the rodeo.

Reception is Jan. 28th, 2011 from 5 -8 pm.

Another frigid Montana day...it was 22 degrees below zero when we got up this morning. I'm sure glad I am not a cow, although they are well equipped for the weather if they get enough feed. The winter brings snow and ice, but it also offers color combinations and inspiration for new paintings. I love the blue-black of the cattle set against the warm white, cool whites and the long blue shadows. Eastern Montana can be somewhat bleak in the winter, but we have had enough snow to cover everything in a nice thick, white blanket this year - cold but beautiful.
