Today was cloudy… I went out to my painting spot at the same time as yesterday… about 4 and did a Cloudy Evening painting. Unfortunately, my phone battery was dead.. so I wan’t able to take a picture of the location.. bummer, I like doing that. But here is the painting: Little Granite Creek – […]
Part 3 in this series where I am painting same scene at different times of day, capturing the color and light difference. Today I got to my painting spot for a late afternoon/sunset painting. The air here is so clean that we don’t get those gorgeous sunrise and sunsets as some other places do. The […]
Good Morning! Here is the beginning of a new series. I am painting the same view in different lights. At different times of the day. To be able to perceive the color differences at various times of day. I would probably extend this to different seasons, weather. I was hoping to start with pre-sunrise, but […]
Yesterday I went out to Watson Lake to paint. It’s beautiful, but yesterday was free parking day and there were a lot of people. I like to be secluded with just me the paints and my thoughts when I am painting and it was irritating when people would come over and wonder about the, umm, […]
I finished 30 paintings in 30 days in September. Wow! I am so very happy about it. This has taken me a long ways from when I started this a month ago. I have learnt a lot and experienced a lot. It’s been a very internal journey as well. I have grown as a person […]

We have had some bad weather already so early. Strong winds and then thick frost last night. Most of my garden died from the frost. It was sad. But we had a nice warm day today with no wind. Taking advantage of that I went out to Willow Lake again. It was lovely. All I […]
No post yesterday, as I had to go to a field trip with my kids to Phoenix. We went to the Musical Instrument Museum and Butterfly Wonderland. What fun! So today I did two small paintings. These roses are blooming outside my house. Lovely… Tried to pull a Ovanes Berbarian style painting on these.. I […]
So today was a day to get out of the house and paint. Well… By the time I started thinking about it, the wind picked up… It is sooo windy! But anyway, I headed out to Willow Lake. A beautiful spot. It’s a reservoir that is built among these super cool granite boulders. Almost like […]
