I paint colorful outdoor landscapes. Whether working in the studio or en plein air my medium of choice is oil. Before painting, preparatory sketches or drawings in graphite, charcoal, ballpoint pen, or watercolor ease the way into the oil paintings which are executed using a palette knife and/or brushes. My art conveys a sense of energy through texture that stems from a wide variety of mark making.

"Rice Stacks, Bhutan" - 6" x 8". Oil on Canvas. NFS. While on a drive through the Punaka Valley in Bhutan, we happened upon these magnificent stacks of unthreshed rice. Sitting in a field of yellow mustard, they were about 10 feet tall and a wonder to behold. Crying out to be painted, we set up our easels with only roaming cows and horses for company. By the end of the painting session we were surrounded by onlookers - men and children. Where they came from ??? This image has been published in the July - September issue of Tashi Delek Magazine.
