Characters, personalities, eccentrics, and originals.

Scenes, streets, and moments in time.

Impressions and studies from day-to-day life.

  • There was a strong wind this afternoon, but it was wonderfully warm by the Little Eau Pleine River and near by flowage. The highlight of my quiet afternoon out was a river otter that ran past. I also spotted a muskrat and a hawk. (Oil on linen on board, 12
  • Morning hike and quick sketches at Mead Wildlife Area. Beautiful blue sky, new mud boots, and a muskrat sketched through binoculars. #wisconsin #spring #earthday #hike #meadwildlifearea #sketchbook #pleinair #watercolor #ink #muskrat #mudboots
  • A study of the melting snow. Last weekend Central Wisconsin went from puddles to over 20 inches of snow, and now it is melting away. As I painted, the redwing blackbirds watched and a pair of killdeer swooped around the field. (10x8
  • Farm off of Hwy 10 in Central Wisconsin. This is from earlier this week, it is raining this morning and snow in the forecast for the weekend. #oilpainting #pleinairpainting #farm #field #discoverwisconsin #barn #coffee #painting #pleinair #travelwisconsin #snow #spring
  • Maybe this is the end of painting snow for the season? It was a noisy day out today, with sandhill cranes, ducks, and geese flying overhead. I worked on this little study during two quick afternoons out in the snow that is quickly turning to mud. #oil #painting #pleinair #pleinairpainting #spring #birds #trees #wisconsin #art #travelwisconsin #coffee
  • Dodge, this van has been around, but not going too far anytime soon. (6x8
  • A grey day among the trees. This study isn't finished yet, it has been a great exercise in desaturated colors and gentle shifts of tone. A flock of geese flew over while I painted, and I think I heard a robin singing. I am looking forward to the spring greens to arrive. #wisconsin #trails #landscapepainting #oilpainting #pleinair #winter #trees #painting #coffee #lunchbreak #hewittmarshtrail
  • Textured bark, melting snow, and the first mosquito of the season! #sunshine #pleinair #snow #tree #oilpainting #wisconsin #winter #landscape #painting
  • Working outside this morning. #sunshine #cattails #snow #field #pleinair #oilpainting #wisconsin #landscape #painting #coffee #birdwatching #newtraditionsartpanels #travelWI
  • Taking an afternoon break to paint some postcards and sit in a sunny window. Any artists want to exchange hand painted/sketched cards this week? I made a few extras #painting #watercolor #postcard #mailart #wisconsin #trees
  • Checking on my trees and landscapes from January, they are drying nicely in the little panel carrier boxes my dad made (thanks dad!). Toning some light weight panels from New Traditions and preparing for warmer painting and hiking days. #oilpainting #pleinair #panelcarrier #newtraditionsartpanels #wisconsin #woodworking
  • November colors... #wisconsin #sketchbook #watercolor #ink #autumn #tree #leaves
  • It's 31degrees in Central Wisconsin, I had to paint quickly and do jumping jacks to keep my fingers moving. Even when it's cold, it is nice to get out in the fresh air. #pleinair #snow #trees #painting #wisconsin #landscape #freshair #oilpainting
  • A quiet second story window view. The January landscape can be a challenge when the sun isn't out, so desaturated and subtle. #pleinair #painting #oilpainting #landscape #wisconsin #art #pinetree #farm #field #snow
  • Early morning, before 7am, if I am lucky I catch the first colors of the day from the window. #oilpainting #wisconsin #winterpainting #snow #landscapepainting #trees
  • Crooked little Apple tree covered in lichens. #oilpainting #appletree #pleinair #wisconsin #lichen #painting
  • Painting at the George W Mead State Wildlife area. A beautiful conservation area in the valley of the Little Eau Pleine River. Spotted a bald eagle, a muskrat, and a lot of other interesting animal tracks in the snow. Thanks to John for rigging up an old sled to pull my french easel on, and taking the photos! #hiking #snow #wisconsinstatenaturalarea #wildlife #pleinair #oilpainting #landscapepainting #conservation #eaupleine #sledding #painting
  • This afternoon felt like a January Wisconsin heatwave, 35+ in the sunshine. Nice to get a bit of exercise outside this afternoon. Although the titanium white is hard to work with today! #wisconsin #pleinair #oilpainting #trees #landscape #winter #snow #landscape #sorelboots #frencheasel
  • Late afternoon trees, little 5x7
  • Happy New Year! Starting 2018 in Wisconsin with -17 Fahrenheit. #Wisconsinsketchbook #watercolor #ink #snow #winter #sketch

  • Bayfield apples, saving one in my Wisconsin sketchbook. #bayfieldwi #cortland #apple #wisconsin #sketchbook #watercolor #ink #autumn
  • Milkweed pod, a tiny detail from the Ice Age Trail. I revisited the Table Bluff segment today, and the colors along the trail have changed to gold, red and brown. A big difference from a few weeks back when I painted old oak along the same trail. #wisconsin #sketchbook #watercolor #ink #milkweed #prairie #hiking #iceagetrail #tablebluff #swamplovers
  • Collecting Wisconsin maple leaves in my sketchbook. #mapleleaves #watercolor #ink #painting #wisconsin #sketchbook
  • Wisconsin October colors #watercolor #ink #wisconsin #autumn
  • Little sketches today, juniper leaves and a Shagbark Hickory Nut at Indian Lake County Park. This is a big park in Dane County, with trails for walking and if we get snow...skiing in winter. The Ice Age Trail runs through the park and on the North side it is bordered by Halfway Prairie Dane County Wildlife Area. Anyone in Wisconsin roasting Hickory nuts? #shagbarkhickory #hickorynut #juniper #discoverwisconsin #indianlake #iceagetrail #hiking #sketchbook #inktober
  • Divided water of the Townline reservoir and Townline Flowage South of the Eau Pleine River. Thousands of Sandhill Cranes flocking overhead to the protected waters of the George W Mead State Wildlife area. An amazing sight and sound. #discoverwisconsin #sketchbook #inktober #inktober2017 #birdwatching #sandhillcrane
  • Swift Yellow River running through North Wood Park in Wood County Wisconsin. Sketching trees and standing on the 172ft suspension bridge at dusk. #discoverwisconsin #sketchbook #inktober #inktober2017 #trees #yellowriver #suspensionbridge
  • This morning painting at Table Bluff, part of the Ice Age trail and swamp lovers foundation. This is a beautiful area of trails that wind through restored prairie and oak savannah. Wisconsin is beautiful in September. #pleinair #oilpainting #pochade #hiking #wisconsin #iceagetrail #swamploversfoundation #discoverwisconsin #prairie #oaksavanah #painting #crossplains
  • A small quick tree painting, painted in the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest in Northern Wisconsin. What you can't see in the painting are the mosquitoes! However, it is a beautiful area of lakes, forest and camping. (18x24cm on Belle Arti Panel) #pleinair #oilpainting #chequamegonnationalforest #nicoletnationalforest #wisconsin #spectaclelake #kentucklake #camping #hiking #painting #discoverwisconsin
  • Small oil sketch of Lake Superior, in Northern Wisconsin. Painted at the end of a beautiful short walking trail. The trail is on private land, but open to respectful hikers to enjoy the beautiful walk and views at the end. The water was 68°F and great for swimming. #houghtonfalls #apostleislands #lakesuperior #travelwisconsin #discoverwisconsin #pleinair #oilpainting #wisconsin #painting #hiking #swimming #greatlakes #washburn #bayfield #echodells
  • Little oil painting from a few weeks back, the view from the kitchen window on a windy winter afternoon. Moving day, have packed up the little apartment and saying goodbye to this view. #oilpainting #melbourne #painting #pleinair #australia #rooftops
  • Afternoon sketching at one of my favorite window seats. I suspect many artists sit here and sketch, great for people watching and daydreaming. #caffeetorta #Melbourne #urbansketchers #watercolor #ink #sketchbook #coffee
  • Noosa, watching the waves and a few surfers. A really nice coast walk in the national park, a long part of the trail is paved and easily accessible. #Casuarina #noosa #beach #australia #sketchbook #watercolor #ink #queensland #surf #noosanationalpark
  • A little study on the beach, arms are a little tired (and out of shape!) after kayaking a complete loop around the island. Spotted some interesting wildlife during the camping trip including sea turtles, butterflies, many beautiful birds, shells of the deadly cone snail, and a spotted python napping on the back of the door of the pit toilet at Paddle Bay. #oilpainting #pleinair #beach #Whitsundays #islands #camping #hiking #kayaking #sandybay #paddlebay #australia #nationalpark #southmolleisland #southpacific #coralsea #lovewhitsundays

  • Little watercolor from this afternoon, what you can't see in this painting is the intense cold wind, the ominous dark cloud behind me, and you can't smell the penguin poo smell from the rocks around me! (The penguins are sleeping right now as I sketch). I will be dropping this and a few other watercolor post cards in the mail today. #mailart #watercolor #ink #melbourneart #urbansketchers #sailboat #postcard #stkilda #kitesurfing #sailing
  • Port Melbourne Fire Department Boat. They parked in front of my setup so I tried my best to quickly paint the boat in. Calm water today and a lot of nice people stopped to chat while I worked. I met a lovely couple from New Zealand, the firemen from the boat, a sailor about to depart on a world tour (first stop Fiji), and some tourists from China who had their pictures taken with me and invited me to visit them in China. Never a dull moment working outside! #pleinair #painting #oilpainting #stkilda #Melbourne #australia #pochade #sailing #firefighting #fireboat #firebrigade #skyline
  • Calm water on the Yarra River today, little grey day sketches from the Library at the Dock, maybe my favorite library.

  • This sketchbook just fell off the shelf and opened to this page, from a few years back, a day spent sketching in the courtyard of The Pinacoteca di Brera in Milan. The wonderful thing about opening to a random unexpected page in a sketchbook is I remember what the air felt like, what I was wearing, and the sounds below, while leaning on the railing above the courtyard careful not to drop my paints over the edge. #milano #PinacotecadiBrera #italy #italia #sketchbook #memories

  • Plums, one of my favorite fruits, not just because of the aroma and taste, but also the color. That amazing cloudy blue on the outside is an epicuticular wax, also on blueberries, kale and many other plants. This self forming wax has several purposes to help keep rain off the plants, keep moisture in the fruit, and in some cases protects against UV light and insects. #Epicuticularwax #plums #perfume #watercolor #fruit #painting #illustration
  • Not exactly a fruit, but more an enclosed flower, there is a unique fig wasp that has evolved to pollinate the fig. There was fascinating article in Huffington Post last week about the fig & fig wasp. Instead of painting my coffee this morning, I painted part of my breakfast, a little exercise to get my brain moving. #figs #watercolor #flower #pollination #breakfast #illustration

After WWII Renato Bialetti (Alfonso's son) marketed the espresso maker to the public and made it a world wide success, including adding the logo of the little man with a mustache.
