Looking Up Towards Home II (watercolor 13 x 19) Sold
Walking home from a morning walk in the woods we looked up the hill towards our house into magical morning light. I’ve done my best to capture that light in this pair of paintings.

Hanging Out at Opal Creek (watercolor 13 x 22) Sold
This is our favorite lunch spot on Opal Creek. It’s just below the falls and about half way around the pretty looping trail to Jawbone Flats.

Fog Over Croisan Valley (17 x 23 watercolor) Sold
This painting is a little closer to home than most of my recent work. I see this view every morning on the way home from my walk down Croisan Scenic Trail. The trial occupies a long thin, Salem park with our neighborhood a hundred feet above it and Croisan Creek a few hundred feet below it. The path is beautiful in all seasons and rarely feels nearly as close to town as it is. It’s particularly evocative in the fog.
This painting has sold, but you can still purchase a fine art print.

At the Water's Edge (watercolor 10 x 15) SOLD
Here is another vacation watercolor. This one is from Yellowstone National Park on the north side of the lake. We picnicked here on our last day in the park.
Like my previous painting of Fort Robinson, I simplified the image by masking heavily and then getting out the big brushes. I began by painting in the sky and the light blue of the lake. Then I masked the sky and all of the water except the dark ripples. I painted the trees and hills in used a one inch brush and moving diagonally in wet juicy strips of cobalt blue, raw sienna, and phthalo blue. I blotted the rocky edge in with burnt sienna. The lake ripples are cobalt and phthalo blue grayed down with burnt sienna. After the paint dried I picked out the grass and the highlights on the rocks with mask and added more paint to the rocks and foreground.
This painting has sold. Prints are available from my Fine Art America website. More landscapes by me and others are available at landscape paintings
