NEW WEBSITE: bertelsencrenshaw.com

Mark and I have a new website we're excited about. It's still a work in progress, right now I'm still working on getting my work posted. I'm excited with how it's turning out. Check it out bertelsencrenshaw.com

This is an older one, I was cleaning up some images on my desktop and found this. It sold right off the easel at a demo at meyer gallery during gallery stroll.

Terra Nova Show

I've been doing landscapes the last little while. I had some great reference photos I'd been wanting to use. I'll post more this weekend, with images from the show. Everyone is welcome to cone to the opening at Terra Nova Gallery, Provo 40 West 300 North. Opening reception is 6-9 on Friday September 7th.

this drawing is in baltimore for a show.  it's a portrait of a friend of mine, and an old roommate who I miss dearly. lauren.

snow truck series 1-9

walking shadows, bocce boys

my favorite part of  this one is the shadows. someone once told me that no painting is ever really done, you just chose an interesting place to stop. i chose this place, which is  a little different than what i would normally chose.

art space show

travis from tanner frames was nice enough to let mark and i have a show in his space this last month for gallery stroll. the best part was there was a trevor southey show that they had more pieces than wall space in the other galleries. so, me, mark, and trevor southey had a mini show together. the image isn't great, but one day real soon (when i actually finish all these paintings) i'll post the actual images of the work.

southey is the left hand wall, marks are the mountain and house on the back left wall, mine are next, the 3 stacked over to the large bocce. then marks are the little ones on the right. it turned out to be a pretty ok show.

snow truck series

I just dropped off my first batch of work to the meyer gallery in park city. these are number six and seven from the truck series (out of nine). together the nine paintings show a family trying to get a stuck truck pushed out of the snow.

truck series #9

this is 1 of 9 paintings in this series. 3 of them are currently at art access in salt lake, and will be up through the end of the year.

bocce series #2

spring city plein air competition

plein air provo, terra nova gallery - which was maybe the colded plein air i've ever done.

i ended up sitting in the back of my car trying to finish up as much as possible because my

fingers were frozen. this painting was made from 9am - 1pm including the frame. what a morning.

plein air

i can't decide if these are done or not.... i'm going to let them sit for a bit before i decide anything rash. this was the first plein air session for both, but there might be another trip in the near future.
