Apples and Pears II
Sold
Apples and pears tempt the eyes and taste buds. “Bobism” squares and artful inking give the painting a fresh feel.
The watercolor and ink Apples and Pears II is 11”x15”, matted for a 16”x20” frame.
Saguaro Home
Sold
Bob returns to the Sonoran desert in his latest completed watercolor. Two Elf Owls peek out from their nest in a giant saguaro. Woodpeckers punch out the holes that are later inhabited by a large variety of wildlife. The painting reminds me of the Tucson area with the nearby Catalina Mountains.
The watercolor Saguaro Home is 11”x15”, matted for a 16”x20” frame.
New Mexico Adobe Churches
Available
Drawing from dozens of sketches of the historic adobe churches found in Northern New Mexico Bob combined nine of his favorites into one painting. He’s featured each of these subjects in his works over the years – from the much visited Santuario de Chimayo to the private chapel in Pilar. This time they come together in a montage tour of New Mexico Adobe Churches.
The watercolor and ink New Mexico Adobe Churches is 11”x15”, matted for a 16”x20” frame.
Sunrise on the Sonoran Desert
Sold
As snow continues to accumulate in the Colorado Rockies Bob’s latest painting brings us a bright sunrise on the Sonoran Desert of southeastern Arizona. I especially like the back lighting affect he achieved on the majestic saguaros. I wish I could head down that desert path tomorrow morning.
The watercolor and ink Sunrise on the Sonoran Desert is 11”x15”, matted for a 16”x20” frame.
Apples, Apples, Apples III
Sold
Bob’s spent the last month working on a number of very different pieces, depending on his mood and motivation. Several people have asked when he was going to paint more fruit. Apples, Apples, Apples II is the first to be completed. A few of Bob’s signature squares subtly appear and create depth.
Apple trees in the Denver area produced a hearty crop this year. We’re still enjoying homemade applesauce, fresh apple pies and crunchy apple salads.
Apples, Apples, Apples II measures 8.5×11” and will be matted for an 11×14” frame
Santuario de Chimayo
Sold
Inspired by a visit to Santuario de Chimayo earlier this month Bob painted the well known church north of Santa Fe. What’s missing is the constant stream of visitors.
The painting is 8 1/2”x 11”, matted for a 11”x14” frame.
Arroyo Hondo Revisited
Sold
A graceful archway and stone walk lead to Nuestra Senora de Los Dolores in the village of Arroyo Hondo north of Taos. Bob has depicted the adobe church numerous times in a playful “tipsy” style.
The painting is 11”x15 ”, matted for a 16”x20” frame.
