It is the last week of Art & Soul!

Visit Colliers in downtown Twin Falls to see my entry for Art & Soul.  My entry number is 10-014 if you care to vote!  This piece is called "Camp Host at Gros Ventre".  Gros Ventre is our favorite campground just outside of Jackson, WY.  Lots of moos in camp each year when we visit in the fall.

Two Bears Out Tonight!

When we lived in the "Campus House" our kids used to have a game called "Bears Out Tonight" just at dusk.  They had energetic fun, and had to come in with the street lights came on.  I was never quite sure if this game was just an upgrade from "tag" or another kids game with imagination.  It definitely helped them get their wiggles out.  These games are long gone except for the memories, but these bears reminded me of those simple times.  Bob the Bear on top is probably related to Barry the Bear on the bottom.  Both have a sadness in their eyes, not sure why.

New Work!

Looking ahead to Easter and painting an Easter bunny or two in my "Wild" style.   Still using India ink and watercolor as my medium of choice.  This bunny lives in the landscape just outside my studio window.  He sneaks in and out of the boxwoods and stays close.  He may end up at the Full Moon Gallery in the day or so!

Hawk!

Added this HAWK to the collection at the Full Moon Gallery today.  I got an up close and personal look at this beautiful bird when visiting a Forest Service booth at an art fair.  He was gorgeous and aware.  Surprising that he was not bothered by the crowds.  He simply observed and looked regal.

I'm back! Been a long time since I posted!

Gallery Opening at the Twin Falls Center for the Arts on Thursday, Nov. 15 from 5-7p.m.  

Come and see my new watercolor paintings in the Full Moon Gallery.  

This sunflower piece is on display along with my other new  ink and watercolor pieces.  The painting is large, 22"x30" watercolor paper and even bigger with mat and frame.  It is part of my "WILD" series.  Time to break out of old habits and try something new.  I am using India ink to do the drawing with wide sweeps and splotches, and adding watercolor to the piece.  Great fun!
