Cherokee Falls

These beautiful falling waters drop over the cliff into an emerald pool of clear water.  It is worth the steep hike down to the bottom just to enjoy this peaceful spot for a while.


This is a 9x12 oil on canvasboard.  Email me for price and availability.

Chattanooga - View from Bakers Street

I have joined a group of plein air painters from the Chattanooga area, and this is one of the first places where we met and painted.  We were standing in an abandoned lot on Bakers Street, looking across the river to downtown Chattanooga, with the chalky bluffs reflecting in the water.

Sentinel Pine and North Carolina Farm

Browsing through some old paintings - here are two from the turn of the century.



Sunset with sentinel pine.  What I liked the most about these two scenes was the intensity of the sunlight.  The Sentinel Pine was painted in late afternoon light, but the farm below was painted in early morning light.




North Carolina farm scene - sunrise.
