I drive past this wall frequently in #Provo, #Utah, where I live. My ego is such that I #painted this #mural for free...
...so that no one would #paint something horrible or dumb on it.🙂 #spraypaint

Paint with the colors you've got!

"Rainbow Zebra" 100% #spraypaint
I was going to paint this zebra with trad black and white shades. But, didn't have all of the tones to shade correctly. I saw all of the bright pinks,greens,reds that I never get to use.So...

"Daydreaming" 11"x14" oil on panel
The first time I arrived at the Gros Ventre campground in the Tetons, the bull moose action was just winding down.
All the other photographers had gone. I was left alone with this beautiful moment.
