Trying to stick to a daily creative practice can be difficult or I find myself getting stuck. So I jumped in and started practicing trees.🌳🌲🌴 Just play.

We talk about sharpness as if it’s the soul of a photograph, but it isn’t. Some of the most powerful images are soft, grainy, imperfect, alive in ways a clinically perfect file never is. When we worship sharpness, we lose mood, mystery, and the quiet honesty of atmosphere.

What do you think?

“Although I deeply love oceans, deserts and other wild landscapes, it is only mountains that beckon me with that sort of painful magnetic pull to walk deeper and deeper into their beauty.”

Some cloud photos I’ve taken while traveling across the country are so unique they border on the absurd. This was painted using one of my “unpaintable” pics as reference. Photo was probably taken of the western sky while crossing a highway overpass somewhere in Appalachian Mountains. 10”x10” oil

A rainy, cold morning. Chilly and refreshing.

Finding the simple joys right now.

“Stay faithful in things large and taking on the world, but stay faithful in those things small - because remember it's the small things, the size of a mustard seed, that ultimately moves mountains.”

Long drive back home, to moody mountains that are ready to burst with springtime color.

Do not delay kindness, an apology, or words like I’m proud of you, I love you, or I’m sorry.
Some hearts wait for these words in silence… and sometimes life passes before we say them.
