Daniels Place — The Majestic Teton River

During my commute to and from Borbay Studios & Gallery, I often promise to — “get out there and capture Teton Valley’s beauty.”

With my eldest daughter Coraline home-schooling, I found that very moment. As for the location? A generous offer from my good friends Andy and Lisa Daniels presented itself. They allowed us to set-up and paint their breathtaking view of the Teton River.

And so, I set out to challenge myself to create a 40″X48″ painting from life, crafted with a palette knife and loads of Liquitex Heavy Body Acrylic Paint.

“Lucky” — Acrylic on a Texas Longhorn Skull

On March 6, 2016 — I navigated a 48-foot-Uhaul along Scenic Route 33, pulling into Victor, Idaho — forever changing our lives in the best way possible. Over the years, our time out West has impacted everything — including my art.

The Brothers Hyde Painting Process

When I first rolled a 26-foot-Uhaul towing our SUV into Teton Valley, I had no idea what the future would bring. As it happens… the future was bright and beautiful. We found ourselves living in a fabulous community, now known as The Bronze Buffalo Ranch at Teton Springs. Here, we met life-long friends, became addicted to golf and discovered a family in the Tetons.

Jackson Hole Fall Arts Festival QuickDraw 2022

For the fifth time in five years, I joined 29 fabulous artist’s on Town Square to participate in the Jackson Hole Fall Arts Festival QuickDraw. The rules? Artist’s may complete their works to 25% in advance of the event… at precisely 8:00AM, a horn blows, and we have 90-minutes to create.

Immediately upon completion — the works are live-auctioned in front of a live audience. Stressful? Invigorating? Exhausting? All of this, and more.

Teton Springs — A Painting Of The 15th Hole

The 15th Hole at Teton Springs brings the temptation. From the tee box, you can see the pin, 269 yards in the distance… surrounded by water and sand traps. Should you drive the green, you are looking at an eagle putt… if you miss, that first penalty stroke is easily followed by another, and another.

So, in other words, the forbidden fruit of 15, coupled with the iconic Rammell Barn proved the perfect hole to capture on canvas.
