Aqua Falls (watercolor 16 x 23) SOLD
No these falls aren’t actually named the Aqua Falls. I don’t know their name. I think of them as the aqua falls, because the water is the most beautiful aqua color there. There being the first falls on the Opal Creek Trail, east of Salem, Oregon. If you hike the trail you’ll find them just as you reach the abandoned mill machinery. You have to scramble a little off trail down some rocks to reach this view of them. The good news is you’ll probably have them to yourself.

I found the Jewish men’s back hats and suits striking against the back drop of more casually dressed tourists.

Sunflowers with Chair (16 x 20 Collage) Available
This is the first collage I’ve published on-line. It is hand-printed paper on plywood.
I began my foray into collage by hand-printing and hand-marbling paper to create a paper palate. I print paper using stamps, found objects, combs, palate knifes, and other implements to texture acrylic paint on a gel pad. As I work, I stamp a sheet of paper with the paint I’m lifting from the gel pad. When I have the gel pad textured to my satisfaction, I lift one or two prints from it’s surface by laying paper down on the pad. Later, I may stamp the gel pad mono-prints with a contrasting color. The goal is to have many textures in a full range of color and value.
Ultimately I tear the paper into little pieces and glue it to boards with liquitex to create paper “paintings.”
