The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common, and that they’re the ones who are alone. In Minnesota, all of the ideological cornerstones of MAGA have been proved false at once. Minnesotans, not the armed thugs of ICE and the Border Patrol, are brave. Minnesotans have shown that their community is socially cohesive—because of its diversity and not in spite of it. Minnesotans have found and loved one another in a world atomized by social media, where empty men have tried to fill their lonely soul with lies about their own inherent superiority. Minnesotans have preserved everything worthwhile about “Western civilization,” while armed brutes try to tear it down by force.

Currently on the easel. Thankful for a job that keeps me on the search for the most beautiful, moving sights I can find in nature. It’s too easy to forget we live in a world of wonders.

In this tough and moving essay, Caroline Kennedy's 35-year-old daughter Tatiana Schlossberg reveals that she is terminally ill with leukemia. She has some choice words about how her cousin Bobby has made the limited time she has left worse. www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

A Battle with My Blood

When I was diagnosed with leukemia, my first thought was that this couldn’t be happening to me, to my family.

An 11x14 oil painting fresh off the easel. This one is heading up to Montana for a small works show.

Light Breaking Through Oil on linen, 24 x 48 in. Painted from video I shot on the north shore of Maui in 2019. The light that morning was otherworldly! #art #oilpainting #fineart #landscape #seascape #landscapepainting

Golden hour light on eucalyptus is a classic California motif—I got to try my hand at it in this piece for the Catalina Island Conservancy’s show in October. The painting is 20x30” and I’m honored that it went to the home of a friend in Southern California. #oilpainting #california #landscape

A quick 12x12 in oil study from life. Near Aspen, CO last summer. I saw these clouds from a country road and pulled over to paint them.

An oil painting of Muir Woods from 2019. It’s a 24x36” piece; I have a 48x72” version in the works but I want to do the place justice and it’s hard to find time for a big one. Someday! #fineart #oilpainting #landscape #landscapepainting #muirwoods

A 24x30 oil painting of the Tundra Communities Trail near the top of Trail Ridge Rd in RMNP. This one is from photo and video reference—it’s a bit windy up there for a big painting! #oilpainting #landscapepainting #fineart

Did this one as a demonstration for an art instructional video over a couple of days. Somehow having the pressure of filming made the resulting painting come together quickly—it’s a favorite. Glowing Falls Oil on linen, 24x24 in. #oilpainting #fineart #landscape #waterfall

Nothing like the glow of a Colorado aspen glade in peak fall color. Painted this 40x48” piece from some photos I took near Steamboat Springs. #art #oilpainting #landscapepainting

Thunderhead Oil on linen, 30x30 in. Possibly my favorite thing about the western landscape is the skies—massive cumulonimbus clouds that have such distinct shapes they appear like landforms.
