Masteress of all she surveys

What fun it is to paint these amazing creatures

I simply replied that I didn't or couldn't see it any other way

As I drove away from a visit with dear friends I noticed the morning light beaming through the trees and was instantly enchanted

This original hangs in the home of a much loved and respected fellow artisan friend of mine

We had so much fun and a lot of people got to see my process for adding the amazing colors and textures that make my painting unique and fun

Lunchtime in SW Portland Oregon

John's Bridge is an Icon in the Northwest and has a pretty impressive pedigree

Sisters Oregon was my home for many years and seeing these Grand Ones brings a feeling of home and hope and a place where my spirit can soar far and wide

Soft foliage busy yet not overpowering the focal point -the birds- this is a wonderful painting with a powerful title that was a group effort from my social media family
