Lizard Butte


Lizard Butte near Marsing, Idaho dominates the surrounding landscape and is a marker for the wine region of Idaho near the Snake River. I have always been drawn to its massive shape and its forward leaning lines.

This alkyd oil painting is 42 x 60 and is priced at $6,300. It can be seen at Rowe/Lisk Gallery in Boise, ID, at 850 Main St., 208-342-3773.

Yummy Evening

To the north of Boise is a valley my wife and I call "Yummy Valley". That's because every time we go there, our reaction is: this is such a yummy place! Sensuously endowed with graceful curves that light transforms into massive, yet gentle, volumes. The valley is home to Horseshoe Bend, ID, just 30 minutes away from Boise.

This painting is 25 x 55 and priced at $3,440. It presently can be seen at Rowe/Lisk Gallery in Boise ID, 850 Main St., 208-342-3773

Just As It Ever Was









The foothills of Boise have provided me with an unlimited source of compositions. These rolling hills weave an infinite maze of shapes and textures. Carved slowly over thousands of years by the elements, they sit above the city as a transition to Idaho's more famous mountain ranges. For me, they possess a magnetic and hypnotic appeal, continually pulling me into their marvelous intricacies.
