Gold Gate - Red Ridge acrylic on canvas ~ 30" x 40" ~ $2800 |
Blazing gold, amber, orange, and red, evening light settles as a shimmering skin on the buttes and ridges of the High Plains. Open space returns no echo. A gate awaits.
Chalk Butte Road acrylic & xerox transfer on board ~ 22" x 12" ~ $600 |
Undulating, serpentine, a vanishing ribbon of crunching gravel runs to exactly nowhere. Chalk Butte Road carries you off into the open, into the space and empty of a border country.
Pink Morning Mist - Ochre Butte acrylic on board ~ 27.5" x 17" ~ $1000 |
Dawn begins with a burning violet brightening to a glowing and gossamer pink, hiding the far buttes backing away to the western horizon where night runs off. Golden autumn grasses flame on a near slope. Yellow shafts of morning clip by the frazzled heads and careen through the red stalks of tufted little bluestem.
Red Shirt Creek - Reprise acrylic on board ~ 22" x 12" ~ $600 |
Broken badlands country, twisting draws, sculpted ridges studded with juniper and sage, and bright conical buttes enfold the valley of the Red Shirt. A windswept sky, a tattered and streaked dome of gold, spreads across the jumbled land.
