Taylor Mountian- Charity Auction Piece
Medium: Acrylic
Description: I painted this picture for a fundraiser my church was doing for the youth programs. I painted it in 6 hours, partially from a picture reference, partially from my mind. Taylor Mountain is just south of Idaho Falls, ID, and is the namesake for the Taylor Mountain Stake that my ward is part of. It ended up selling for $25 in the silent auction.

Waterfall
Date: February 27, 2013
Medium: Pencil
Description: This started as an exercise from a landscape book, but I soon realized I had more page than there was picture, so I added my own touches here and there around the outer edges.

Scenes From Rose Hill, KS
Date: February 14, 2012
Medium: Watercolor
Description: Scenes from my wife's hometown of Rose Hill, Kansas. The water tower, high school, Apple Market, railroad crossing, and the new town hall that was build shortly after we were married.
I used a standard set of $.99 Crayola watercolors and a small round brush. Not only was this a Valentine gift for my wife, it was also a proof of concept that you don't need super fancy equipment to paint something decent.

Taylor's Bridge, Idaho Falls, ID
Date: October 14, 2009
Medium: Acrylic
Description: Based on the Taylor's Bridge replica found in downtown Idaho Falls, ID. This bridge is the reason Idaho Falls is where it is today. If this bridge had not been built, the city most likely would have grown up around the ferry site about nine miles upstream.

Mother's Day Collages
Two collages I made for Mother's Day 2012. My wife found places online where these were selling for $50 and up. We figured we could do something similar for much less. It was really fun going around our hometown looking for natural letters in our surroundings. We ended up spending only about $6 per picture including the frames.
