The Prairie Steamer - Oil on 9 x 12 Canvas Panel

NO LONGER AVAILABLE

The Prairie Steamer – After almost a two week hiatus from the brushes it seemed only natural to do another steam engine painting. The cool crisp air, a steam engine and the endless miles of flat prairie make a good receipt for an interesting painting. Everything fades or disappears in the distance to accent the object of the work; its steam engine and plume of smoke. This one has a softer nature the than the other two I’ve done recently.

The Red Box Car - I've avoided winter scenes for the most part due to not being confident at painting snow covered surfaces, however could not resist doing this winter scene as the Steam engine pushes its way down the rails through snow and crisp cold temps leaving it's steam engine plume behind. I've done a lot of traveling through Montana, Wyoming, Colorado and Utah in the winters that I've lived here on the west coast. The clear blue skies are typical along with endless miles of telephone poles and strung cable atop them. Put them all together and here is what you get. Your comments are welcome.

Old Abandoned Boat - Warm colors and deep shadows, add some reflections in the still water and you arrive at something like this. This is a departure for me, but a very interesting painting to do. The photographs do not do it justice; I don't know possibly these colors just don't photograph well. Your comments are welcome.

The Morning Train - Oil on 9 x 12 Canvas Panel

Not for sale.

The Morning Train - Here in Sacramento they bring an old steam locomotive out of the railroad museum in the summer and you can buy a ticket and take a ride. They put out heavy plumes of steam/smoke and are a sight to see and hear. This one is pictured in the distance through the ground fog as the sun rises. If you've never experienced real steam engines you should give it a try. Your comments are welcome.
