Charlie's Garden

Charlie's Garden, a beautiful, huge garden along the shores of the lake in McCall, hosts the annual McCall Arts and Humanities fundraiser this Saturday, the 31 st, from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. I will participate with 5 paintings that will be auctioned off to raise money for the programs the Council offers all year in McCall. Come join the fun and bid on a wide range of art offered for sale. Go down Wagon Wheel Road until you see a LOT of cars.

I have five paintings hanging in Jenny's Lunch Line cafe downtown for the next few weeks. It's a great little cafe next to the old Poulet Rouge just off Main and 6th. They have wonderful lunch food and now they have great art too! Make it your next meeting "for lunch" and pick up a couple of paintings while you're there.

Celebrate the Boise River

This 12 x 18 painting will be part of an exhibition at the Garden City City Hall on Tuesday evening, the 29th of June, celebrating the Boise River. Sponsored by the Idaho Conservation League, several artists will show work inspired by our favorite river. All work will be for sale. The show will be from 5 p.m. - 7:30.

The show is up and response has been wonderful. It will stay up through June.

Upcoming Show at Rowe/Lisk Gallery

This is a preview of my exhibition featured at the Rowe/Lisk Gallery for May/June.

I will have several small paintings on display. Starting at 10 x 15 inches, with several at 12 x 18 inches, there will be original, one of a kind paintings for budget conscious art lovers.

"Slopes At Dusk"

"Slopes At Dusk"

This painting is at the Attic Gallery in Portland OR. It is an image suggesting the complexity of the foothills of southern Idaho and the intense impact of light falling on their contours.

22 x 33 priced at $1,825.

"Brushed"

This painting of a small section of the Boise Foothills might not even register as a landscape by a flatlander from the Midwest or a New Englander accustomed to tree covered hills. It could be seen as an abstract painting of weird shapes, but it is actually a fairly reliable depiction of weird shapes found just north of Boise.

20 x 30 $1,500 at Rowe/Lisk Gallery in downtown Boise.
