Niagra Springs

The colors at Niagara Springs are spectacular in the fall. Niagara Springs is just one of the great places to visit in Thousand Springs State Park. Our paintings group spent a day there some time ago and I finally took those preliminary sketches a bit further.

City Streets

A trip to the city always inspires. The tree lined walks, tall buildings, and interesting light are subjects to paint over and over.

Snow Creek

Trying my hand at more snow scenes since it is snowing again today. This one is for Mikey!

Arizona colors...

Spent a week in Green Valley, just south of Tucson. Had a great time touring the artsy town of Tubac. They are adding colorful housing there and I could not resist!

Creekside

Hiked near the area around the SNRA Visitor Center and along Murdock Creek to get this view. The snow levels were low during the holidays, so we could get close to the creek. It should be gorgeous today since the snowstorm is dumping as we speak!

Just finished this painting of the Big Wood River north of Ketchum. Have been working on skills to depict snow and water. I'm into a series...maybe. Definitely need to do the snow dance for the mountains this year.

Snake River Canyon!

Happy New Year!

The sunrise this morning was spectacular over the canyon. Saw a bald eagle gliding along the edge, and base jumpers billowing off the bridge. Good start for the new year!
