There’s a quiet corner in an old cabin by the ea

There’s a quiet corner in an old cabin by the east fork of a river in the endless state of Montana. A western light catches the stone wall a few hours late in the day, revealing its usual motes and bunnies. I like to think it can see the trout below in the light and shadow of the river. I’m sure it sees plenty of mice. But for all its dusty modesty, this corner is a true treasure keeper. The remembrance of a painted gift, a hunt, of a man and his dog… these things remain unchanged here and for that I am thankful.⁠

I wanted to paint a grouping of male and female ducks. Something like that can get busy, so I was very intentional in the composition, putting together a puzzle until the pieces fit. Breaking up a strong horizontal line with vertical elements is composition 101, so I tried to achieve that with the shoreline, reflections and main tree limb. The placement of ducks in a loose zig zag is supposed to lead your eye through the painting, though my eye starts with the handsome guy in the tree on the left and moves up and then around. That's probably because you can "enter" the painting through him because his tail is off the edge, and the water's reflection on him is such a strong vertical. Or maybe it's just because he is handsome. I do like a good looking man.⁠

My favorite cocktail napkins have Audubon birds throughout, with a pink flamingo and blue heron on the front and back. When my favorite bartender makes us the same drink he color codes to avoid confusion.

A recent spring commission, a special collector to give for her mother's birthday. What a pleasure to paint for them and to see my work in their lovely homes. I do love a heron. Lake or beach... marsh, river or creek... I hope your days are full of heron!⁠

Soldier Creek is just to the west of us, it’s a favorite place to ride and dip. Late one afternoon nine years ago, the light in the sky just painted itself. Found the photos again recently and completed this commission for some dear friends last week. The good thing about painting for friends and public spaces is that I know I can visit the piece again. Some are hard to let go!⁠
