Lochlaven Trio
From who or what do you get the greatest inspiration for your work?
All of the ideas or inspirations
for my paintings come from
the Montana landscape or its
animals. How can you live here
and not be fascinated with what
we have? I fly-fish a lot so that's
where the inspiration comes
from for my semi-abstract work.
And I am especially intrigued
with water, our rivers, creeks, and
streams.
When you are not working, what do
you most like to do to enjoy life?
When I am not painting I am
usually fishing, bird hunting,
golfing, or visiting the grandkids.
Sometimes just out shooting
photos that I think would make a
good setting for a painting.
What is your favorite watercolor
painting and your favorite acrylic
work by another artist and why?
Transients
Two artists who I have admired
an awful lot are Winslow Homer
for his watercolor landscapes
and Morten Solberg for his loose
abstract acrylics.
So, if you "could do it all over again," how would your life as an
artist be different?
If I could do it all over again I would probably do the same thing
— except that I would teach more watercolor workshops. The few
workshops that I do teach are pretty fun and satisfying. Especially
when I can turn someone on to painting.
And now, describe your art in just 5 words.
