"Glacier Point" 9"x12" (Click here to bid on eBay)



After arriving late at Yosemite, I took the high road to the top of the park which is called Glacier Point. The view there is amazing. I'm working on a 20x24 piece of another view from Glacier Point that I'm hoping to get into my eBay store soon. Click on the image for a larger view.

"Porch Swing" 9"x12" (Click here to bid on eBay)



Sorry about this late post. I got busy with three illustration projects and one oil portrait commission that I have been meaning to finally paint for more than two years now. Our move to Phoenix, and a death in the commission's family has put it on a continual hold.
This porch swing belongs to Frank Ordaz in Auburn, California. I shot another nice set up of Frank's garden wagon. It's one of his kid's old Red Flyer that he now uses for his garden tools and pots. I basically went there and ransacked his home for still lifes to paint. He has an amazing home that's like a Disneyland for artists with it's gardens and cool knick knacks that he's collected.

"What's Around the Corner?" 9"x12" (Click here to bid on eBay)



Late in the afternoon, after just six hours in Yosemite, I drove through the valley's floor and shot photographs around every corner. The smell of campfires were just starting to fill the air. Click on the image for a larger view.

"Yosemite Stream" 9"x12" (AVAILABLE)




There were some great streams just off the highway as you are driving through the park. This was one stream that was roaring load enough for me to hear it before I got there. I wished I had the time to hike up the stream a few hundred feet, but I arrived late at the park and knew I didn't have the time to cover even the drivable parts in six hours.

"Down in Front" 9" x 12" (SOLD)



This is close to being one of the first and best scenes that I saw while visiting Yosemite. I got there late, around 1 in the afternoon, and by 2 pm I was at one of the highest places in the park called Glacier Point. I'm working on a larger piece from the same vantage point that I will hopefully finish by Friday but will have to juggle a bunch of illustration work in between them.
