Working on a painting of Bidwell Mansion—a tribute to the landmark we lost last year. Sharing my progress as it evolves from sketch to structure to paint. Caleb and I are hosting a show at Art Etc. this summer (July 1–Aug 29, 2025) to honor the Mansion through art.

Photo from this week of Bidwell Mansion

I spent part of my night going through scrapbooks that my Grandma put together of events in her life between 1987-2000. I found family photos, birthday cards, travel photos, birth announcements, newspaper articles, artwork and so much more. #BidwellMansion

Absolutely devestating loss Chico, CA this morning. Not only is this a symbol of Chico, it holds our towns history. I feel so lucky to have called this place my office for years. #CAStateParks #BidwellMansion

The Victorian era Bidwell Mansion, built in Chico in 1868, burned down the morning of December 11th, 2024.

Went to the chiropractor today, and there was a large framed photo on the wall of the #BidwellMansion with an eerie red glow behind it, like a building about to burn down. His friend took that picture on the day of the 2018 #CampFire.

UPDATE: Chico in shock as Bidwell Mansion destroyed by ‘devastating’ fire Bidwell Mansion, the home of John and Annie Bidwell that has stood as the iconic symbol of our town for 160 years, has been destroyed by fire.

Things you don't realize you'll miss until they're gone. I grew up in northern California, visited #BidwellMansion many times. A fire early this morning destroyed the house. Right now I'm... Heartbroken. Damn!
