This landscape painting was painted in plein air one early morning at Pere Marquett State Park in Illinois near Grafton, IL. I loved seeing the light peaking around and through the trees. This landscape painting is framed in a black plein air style frame.

My paintings reflect my love of the outdoors, especially those places near a stream, a river, a lake, or the sea. This fascination with the outdoors began when I was a young boy exploring McKenzie Creek, which ran about 50 yards from my Grandmother’s home, in Piedmont Missouri. Many of my paintings are devoted to scenes that have in them a body of water of some type or other. Other features of the outdoors that I am drawn to are mountains, skies, trees, old barns, hay bails, and animals.
