Hills above Curlew Lake


"Hills above Curlew Lake", 11 x 14 In, Oil on Panel

In June I traveled to Republic, Washington, for one of our Plein Air Washington paint outs. This is a beautiful area, remote from the intensity of the I-5 corridor in Western Washington, with expanses of fields, hills, mountains and beautiful lakes.

Solduc Rapids - SOLD

"Solduc Rapids", 12 x 10, Oil on Museum Board

I painted the Solduc last summer during the Paint the Peninsula event. I love the Olympics. I spent years as a girl backpacking up the rivers--the Hamma Hamma, the Dosewallips, the Elwa, the Quinault. The names alone bring me to a magic place.

Road Near Angoin - SOLD


"Road Near Angoin", 12 x 16 In, Oil on Museum Boaard
The small village where we stayed in France had maybe 10-15 dwellings at the most, all of them old and made of stone. It was so pastoral and beautiful. We did have several cloudy days, but that makes for beautiful skies.

SOLD

Bridge at Angoin

"Bridge at Angoin", 12 x 16 In, Oil on Museum Board
This is the second painting I did on the cloudy/rainy day in Angoin using mainly transparent washes to start and not going far beyond that. It is unusual for me to paint so deliberately though it probably doesn't look particularly deliberate!

Purchase this unframed painting.

House Gate at Angoin


"House Gate at Angoin", 12 x 16 In, Oil on Museum Board
For two weeks in May I painted around a small town in Burgundy, France at a workshop.  I experimented with a different approach, mainly starting the oil painting with a water color like wash.With this painting I didn't actually go far beyond the wash, so it was an interesting contrast in approach to my usual thick paint brush load. The skies were overcast much of the time, so this painting was full of grays.

Trail to Grinnell Glacier

"Trail to Grinnell Glacier", Oil on Panel, 12 x 16
What I didn't put into the painting were all the mountain sheep in this spot on the way to the Grinnell Glacier. They were on the trail and in the meadows and some hikers were using dubious means to get them off the trail because they had very big horns and seemed very curious.

Purchase this unframed painting.

Overcast Day

"Overcast Day", 12 x 16 In, Oil on Panel
Sometimes I stay on a theme because I have a better chance of learning something new when some of the variables stay the same. Painting flowers in sunlight and overcast conditions is a subject that has a never ending interest--there are so many things to study.

Idaho Sky

"Idaho Sky", 12" x 16", Oil on Panel
Where I live in Western Washington the skies are beautiful, but often obscured by the trees--trees everywhere--and green everywhere. That is one reason I love the interior west--the big open spaces and the big skies.

Purchase this unframed painting.

First Snow Utah

"First Snow Utah", 12" x 16", Oil on Museum Board
I am starting to experiment with daily paintings larger than my usual 8" x 10" size. This painting is also an experiment with using Phthalo Blue, a beautiful color that can overwhelm the palette.

Purchase this unframed painting.
