Nestled in a rolling meadow surrounded by the blue mountains an old bourbon barrel has new life as nature repurposes it into a wildflower planter and butterfly sanctuary. I've included my wife’s favorite butterflies, the Monarch and Black Swallowtail. The barrel sports the name of our favorite destination when we come down, Frankfort. The flowers soaking in the sun are a wide variety including Blackeyed Susans, White Daisies and a nod to Kentucky with the state flower the Golden Rod peaking up from behind the makeshift flower garden. This was a fun painting to pay tribute to Kentucky’s beautiful scenery and its rich distilling history.

I am a self taught artist from northwest Ohio. I started painting at an early age then diverged into wood carving. Blood thinners directed me back to acrylic painting and I have focused on it for many years. I have a small upstairs studio closely supervised by our two cats on the little 3 acre farm my wife and I own. After many trips to Kentucky’s bourbon spots I have a love of bourbon history and culture. I try to capture it in each painting.
All prints are giclée museum quality prints with special fade resistant ink on acid free materials. They have the highest resolution for the most accurate reproduction of the original painting.
