 Palms in the Mist

Old Florida Backcountry painting of Sabal Palm and Saw Palmetto

 in an abandoned Orange Grove

This original oil painting is 14" x 24" oil on stretched linen canvas and depicts a grove of cabbage palms and slash pine within an Everglades clearing. The day is misty and humid and a soft silvery light pervades the scene.

Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary is a National Audubon Society sanctuary located in southwest Florida, north of Naples, Florida and east of Bonita Springs, in the United States. The sanctuary was established to protect one of the largest remaining stands of bald cypress (Taxodium distichum) and pond cypress (T. ascendens) in North America from extensive logging that was ongoing throughout the 1940s and 50s.

Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary

A series of paintings of the Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary

near Naples, Florida.

I've spent many hours working plein air in this magical place- looking to capture the essence of the pristine Florida wilderness- perhaps somehow witnessing through proximity to these massively giant trees that are a living link to secrets thousands of years old.

Falling Water S.P. Florida

Here's the finished painting of Falling Water State Park,

The painting took some time for me to capture the essence of the falls. 

The sense of the mist and the rainbow materializing in a ray of light that falls into the shaft, with ferns

 clinging to the sides of the rock. Beyond and above there is the creek that tumbles forward, yet never reaching the river as it it's fate is to be swallowed by the earth.

Everglades Majesty

Painted at the Collier Seminole State Park. Hiked in with my gear from the parking lot about 20 minutes

and found this amazing view... I could have been deep in the heart of the Amazon, miles from civilization, if I didn't know better.
