"Up and Away"

5" x 5"
Oil painting on hardboard panel

I really focused on injecting a bit more color into this little painting. I've been painting really shadowy brick buildings lately and they are mostly brown/black with grey skies. This one is more uplifting and cheery. Kinda like the weather outside this week! Come on spring!

"Peerless"

4" x 7"
Oil on hardboard
Buy this painting on Ebay
I love this old building. It sits a stones throw from the Mississippi river in downtown Winona. It's the old Peerless Chain building. The company is still in Winona, but I'm unsure if they use this building anymore. Great shadows cast from an adjacent building at sunset.

"Blue on Blue"

6" x 8"
Oil on hardboard
sold
Winona, Minnesota

Downtown Winona. A blue vacant building in front of a blue vacant sky. This used to be Ramer's Fish Market. You can still tell where the letter and logo were on the front of the building.

"Bill Angst Auto Service"

5" x 7"
Oil on hardboard
sold
Winona, Minnesota

This little corner auto service in downtown Winona packs in a half dozen cars and trucks on its lot. It seems like it would only fit two comfortably. A nice orange and yelloy truck with the fall foliage in the background. Bluffs.
