This painting was inspired by Sahalie Falls along the McKenzie river in Oregon. For those of you who have been there, I of course took artistic liberty by increasing its height and decreasing its width. I loved the thought of the double falls, but wanted a strong vertical format.

This painting was inspired by Lake MacDonald in Glacier National Park. We were staying in a cabin next to the lake. One evening after dinner we decided to go down to the lake. The evening colors were magnificent!
RADIANCE
Original Watercolor Study
Image Size: 11.5h x 8w
Frame size (suggested): 20h x 16w
Price: $55
I decided to paint whites. This takes practice to show many colors within the white shape. This one got a little away from me, resulting in more of a peach tone than I intended. But I still felt it radiated light from within!
KALEIDOSCOPE
Image Size: 13h x 9w
Frame size (suggested):** 18h x 14w
Price: $45
While working at a non-profit gallery one day I decided to mix ink with watercolor. There was a show coming up featuring dahlias so I decided to paint a dahlia. I drew the flower with ink then used the wet-in-wet method to add touches of color over the paper. The background was added after the sheet was dry, again using wet-in-wet so the dark colors would blend. Always a fun technique. The result reminded me of a kaleidoscope! And yes, the painting did win an award!
SWAMP MONKEY FLOWER
Original Watercolor Study
Image Size: 7h x 5w
Frame size (suggested):** 10h x 8w
Price: $25
While hiking the trail at Fall River in Central Oregon my husband took photos of the wildflowers. This was an interesting one so I chose this flower to practice some different techniques. This technique is wet-in-wet which is always my personal favorite - it is so fun to paint this way even though there is a significant lack of control!
