Welcome to Two Studio Art

Welcome to my blog. I am an artist living in two places therefore the name Two Studio Art. I normally paint in oil but I also enjoy working with pastels. A recent trend in painting is to paint in a small format and to paint often to improve one's skills. While I'm not a daily painter (too many other commitments) I try to paint at least once or twice a week. I recently started painting in plein air and find it a way to really connect with the colors seen in the environment. I am an instructor at Blue Raven Studio in Kayenta at Ivins, Utah where I teach a class at Canvas a la Carte. I also show my work at Blue Raven so stop by and take a look at the paintings that I don't get posted on my blog. I hope you enjoy your visit and return often.

Hay Bales


This was painted at the Matanuska Experiment Farm in Palmer. They have a number of research and demonstration projects that may be of interest to anyone who has questions about agronomy or horticulture. My interest is in the old barns and buildings that are located on the property. I loved the way the shade draped across the road leading to the old cow barn. The hay bales added another point of interest in this painting, and once again one of the mountain peaks that surround the Matanuska Valley towers in the background.
