Home in the Rain
Oil 11 x 14 in
It goes without saying that this is not a plein aire painting. I took a photo at 36th street on the way out of town and in a driving rain storm.

I am a Bend, Oregon, artist who paints in a variety of mediums; oil, watercolor and acrylic. I've recently been working on about everything under the sun, Still life, urban street scenes, dogs, fruit. And I'm doing more and more plein air, finding these paintings sometimes more satisfying than studio painting from photographs.
