Thank you for a successful 2023 season at the Hawk Creek Gallery!
We are now closed for the 2023 season. This is the time I get to go back into the studio and really paint. I’m going into winter with a number of exciting commissions, and a sketch book full of ideas I can’t wait to explore. I look forward seeing everyone at the gallery next spring!
“Drifting” acrylic 42”x30”
Of my many travels, both domestically and abroad, I had never been to the Teton area, or even in the state of Montana. This past fall I rectified that, with a modest hiking trip to the Tetons, the Wind River Range, up through Yellowstone to Glacier National Park. It is a gorgeous area and one I’ll definitely go back to.
Here are three new paintings from this trip.
“Torrey Creek Canyon” acrylic 50”x30”
“Wind River Chasm” acrylic 43”x30”
“October Light- Wind River Range” acrylic 32”x30”
The gallery is now closed for the season. We will be reopening the first of April, 2023.
We look forward seeing you all then!
The garden at the Hawk Creek Gallery is starting to turn, hinting at the approaching Autumn. As the garden turns, so we are turning to our Fall hours at the gallery. We are now open Thursdays-Sundays, 11-5, as well as by appointment. We hope to see you before we close for the winter!
“Navigating Uncharted Waters” acrylic 24”x24”
We now have a better sense of the Hawk Creek Gallery timeline. It now looks as like we will open for the summer July 1st. We will be following the best recommended practices, including physical distancing, hand sanitizer stations and wearing masks. We thank all of you in advance for following these guidelines. Until that time please feel free to contact me and see if we can set up an appointment. Thank you all for your patience!
Dear friends,
This was not the Spring update I thought I’d be posting. With the personal and economic disruptions hitting virtually everyone worldwide, being worried about gallery hours and opening schedules feels indulgent. I want to express my sympathy and concern to all dealing with this unprecedented event. I am also eternally grateful for all who have enjoyed Hawk Creek Gallery and my artwork for the past 42 years as well as those who have recently discovered us. Thank you for your support!
With the current best information we are keeping the gallery closed until we're allowed to reopen. I am using this extended time to work in the studio. I have two exhibitions slated to open this spring. The first being at the renown Stoller Winery in the beautiful hills of Dundee, Oregon. This was to be hung in April, running through the summer. I’m fairly sure this exhibit will take place, just pushed back until the winery and tasting rooms are able to reopen. The other show is scheduled for the month of June at the Crossroads Carnegie Art Center in Baker City, Oregon. I’ll post exhibition updates here.
I wish you all good health and look forward seeing you soon!
“Into the Deep” acrylic 18”x47
We are pleased to offer prints of the painting, “Secret Cove, South Beach”, from the original watercolor. This vibrant print measures 15”x20” and is offered for $125. Please check on the Prints page for ordering information. The print will also be available at the Hawk Creek Gallery when we reopen for the season the first of April, 2020.
I’m still in the process of rebuilding my website. As it gets up and running, I’ll be adding content to this page, showing new work, notices of upcoming exhibitions and more. Please check back!
