Original Paintings are for sale.

The Four Seasons paintings were originally created for a printing company that specialized in producing personal checks with pictorial images screened as background. The prints were sold through banking institutions.

After the paintings were completed and the color separations readied, suddenly everything changed. The company
was purchased by larger printing conglomerate and the
Four Season Check Project died with the merger. The four paintings were returned.

With the initial printing preparations already complete the decision was made to publish them for collectors - four separate limited editions of 1000 prints each.

COVERED BRIDGE IN SPRING
Loosely based on the nostalgic covered bridges of Parke County, IN. (Trivia note: With 35 covered bridges, Parke County contains more covered bridges than any
other similar-sized location in the world)

FARMSTEAD IN SUMMER
Based on a cluster of barns near Georgetown,
in Southern Indiana.

RURAL CHURCH IN AUTUMN
Inspired by a church in central Indiana that did not
have a spire. It's so nice, being an artist,
"draw a tree here, paint a spire there".

GRIST MILL IN WINTER
Based on a replicated mill located at Squire Boone
Caverns in Harrison County, Indiana.
