This original oil painting was created en plein air in the summer of 2018. This railroad track is very near my house and it's a great place to paint - it's convenient - but it's also inspiring and very American in a Hopper-esque way. We get trains only twice a day at predictable times, so it's easy to set up my easel on the tracks and plug in my ear phones with out worrying. I create paintings to last for generations. This piece was painted on a cradled wooden panel which I used traditional homemade rabbit glue to mount linen canvas on, which I then covered with homemade gesso. It's a rigid surface and a method that has been used for hundreds of years. The frame was custom made by fine furniture maker Jens Sehm, which I hand gilded. The gilding has some charming imperfections. It was covered with shellac and should age nicely. It should darken a bit and get better with time. The painting measures 16" x 20" and about 17.5" x 21.5" when framed.

I paint and teach painting and drawing full time in Southern Oregon. I studied art at contemporary art school, classical realist schools and am creating my own way somewhere in the middle. My work absorbs lessons from our past, documents life today and is created to last long into the future.
