From cattle grazing in creek-fed pastures, majestic weathered barns reminiscent of a golden era in agriculture, and prairie landscapes filled with the beauty of wildflowers and nature’s wonders, these are all images that I enjoy painting to give tribute to our vanishing countryside and rural lifestyle.

The most common question asked is what is the difference between an A.P. and the regular limited edition? A.P. stands for artist proof and is a tradition that dates back to the early printing presses when the first prints off the press were considered to be more desirable because the inks were truer.
Today with our technology the last print is of the same quality as the first however the tradition of numbering APs is still done. This is a small edition, usually no more than 10% of the limited edition. So if there were 750 prints, there would only be 75 APs, numbered as AP 1/75. Because the edition is smaller, they are considered more valuable and only make a difference when the print is sold out and on the secondary market. Serious print collectors usually like to collect artist proofs. I tell my customers to buy an image because they love it, not because of a potential investment value.
Artwork deserves to be protected. By framing your piece, you are not only enhancing the artwork but also protecting it from environmental factors. Matting serves a crucial protective purpose for ensuring the artwork doesn’t touch the glass, so your investment can last for generations. Without a mat, condensation could form on the inside of the glass, leading to potential damage to the artwork.
