About the author: I begin my watercolor paintings with an idea and a drawing. I build the painting layer by layer, drawing lines and shapes, looking for rhythm and feeling. My color sense is a reflection of my childhood in New Mexico fused with colors of my home in the Northwest. My goal is to go beyond the surface to find joy, wonder and a bit of mystery. I have shown my works in galleries, juried, group and solo shows in Washington, Oregon, Montana and New Mexico. My paintings are in private collections in the west, New York and Norway.

Coming To Terms With Simplifying. Greetings! I’m still thinking about this idea of simplifying. In this article, I speculate about where the concept of simplifying fits in the composition lexicon for drawing and painting. Mini Workshop Coming Up. Yes, this is the kind of thing I contemplate on from time to time. And, if you […]

Sometimes its just about freedom and exploration; that is, taking a moment to release your inner adventurous spirit. Intentions. Greetings!

Talent: a special aptitude, skill or gift someone seems to have; the t-word. Just Thinking. Greetings! The word and concept of “talent” has been rolling around in my head for a week or two. Its odd, I think, but recently I’ve read good blog posts by other artists on the subject of talent, skills, passion; […]

Symbols, in my case, images or colors representing ideas, thoughts or emotions. St. Patrick’s Day. Hi! Its “St. Patrick’s Day” weekend! I have always understood this day to be one in which people of certain cultural descent honor St. Patrick, the Patron Saint of Ireland. Of Celtic Descent. Even though I am a descendent of […]

Oddly enough, I had to […]

Continuity, as in an ongoing flow of work. Its all part of a bigger picture! Day 30! Closing or Opening? Greetings! With today’s painting I arrive at the end of the #30paintingsin30days challenge hosted by Leslie Saeta Studios. And, yet, it feels more like an opening rather than a closing of my work. Open To […]

Triad or three; which, in this case, involves the three primary colors. Triad: Yellow, Red And Blue. Greetings! Its Day 29 of the #30paintingsin30days challenge hosted by Leslie Saeta Studio.
