Bodie Homestead

This building is located in Bodie State Historic Park in Bridgeport California, which is a gold-mine ghost town. The structures are all in a state of arrested decay, or have been left as is. You can walk through the dirt streets around and peer in windows. Bodie Homestead oil on canvas 40x30in. High Camp Home … More Bodie Homestead

Frame of Mind

The beginning of summer in Truckee and the Brockway Summit shack is still standing. Surrounded by beautiful Sierra Onions and spreads of Yampahs the aspens area now bright green.

Green barn

This barn is in Genesee Valley in Plumas County. I painted this with a background of movement in warm colors because it reminded me of the Dixie Fire that was burned more than 963,000 acres in three months of 2021. I believe the barn is still standing. Sierra Barn 24×30 inch High Camp Home Sold

Red’s Outlook

Every morning a Red Shoulder hawk would perch on these coastal oaks checking out its territory. I was fortunate to actually line up the tree trunks in my painting with the view when I stood back to take the photo.
