Early Fall, PNW

This painting no longer exists in real life, and was moving a bit even when the photo was taken so this is a moment captured and gone. I tried on trick too many and put some real plant matter onto it, to try to get leaf impressions. Instead, it glopped into a sticky mess. I also got green paint on the rug in the dining room, don't tell anyone! Anyway, I did love it for this brief moment. 
 

Stormy Spring Evening, Pt 2

Slightly better photo of the painting. 

Turns out a little bit of sun goes a long way in photographing artwork- e

ven if the artwork is of a storm. 

Stormy Spring Evening

A quick sketch of the Columbia River.  Painting feels great,  every time

A Moment of Zen

A fleeting moment snapped on a walk... and yet winter and happiness seem captured here, ready to be recalled when the sky become dreary and grey again.
