This is a beautiful little lake near as spot dubbed "glass beach" in Port Townsend, WA.  This particular day was chilly and blustery, but is was worth the trek not only for the painting, but for all of the beach glass "loot" we found!  Your eyes are not deceiving you, by the way.  the clouds do have a very subtle pearlescent quality.

I instantly fell in love with the brights and darks of this canyon.  It also cried out to be painted larger.  I couldn't fit all of its energy into a smaller piece!

I loved every moment of painting this piece. Achieving the look of rocks under fast-moving water was a very enjoyable challenge.

Road to the Mountains (8 x 8 oil on gessobord)

I've never painted a mountain. I love hiking and I walk up a lot of them so that's a little strange. Ha, ha. I loved painting this one though, so maybe there will be more mountain paintings from me in the future.

It was mid-August and about 90 degrees when I took the photo that would become this painting. I was standing in the shade, watering the trees and admiring all of the dandelion fluffs glowing in the sun.

This was my first ever view of the Grand Canyon!  I absolutely loved "carving" the layers of rock with my painting knife!

Nothing is more soothing than water running over stones.  Capturing that in this painting was a joy!

While my husband and I were doing chores in the backyard, the lovely dappled sunlight and brightly lit bucket begged to be painted.  I grabbed my camera and snapped a quick photo between feeding the chickens and watering the plants.

I love old barns and they show up in my paintings often.  This one, with its blue-grey color, really caught my eye.
