Portfolio

This portfolio represents my ongoing exploration of steam-powered machinery, inspired by a lifelong passion that began in childhood. Through these paintings, I aim to capture both the technical beauty and the enduring spirit of steam locomotives and equipment. Each piece is influenced by historical references and personal memories, with the goal of preserving and celebrating the legacy of steam through art.

Available Pieces

The 4-6-0 Ten-Wheeler locomotive began production in 1850, with approximately 16,000 units eventually manufactured. Some remained in service until the end of the steam era.

The 4-6-0 Ten-Wheeler was considered one of the finest general-service locomotives of its time. Many Ten-Wheelers later found homes in parks and museums, while some have been restored to operating condition.

 

Three Truck Climax
30″ X 40″ Canvas

One of the geared-type locomotives produced from the late 1800s into the early 1900s.

The Climax locomotive had a top speed of approximately 15 mph and was well suited for logging and mining operations due to its ability to operate on poorly laid temporary track.

Production of the Mogul-type locomotive ended in 1910.
