Hello friends and art lovers,

Your patience is rewarded - a newsletter, with lots of pictures 🤗, to while away your time, and your imagination. I do love winter in the mountains, but dream of warmer weather and climes as well. A road trip to the desert is in the works to leave our Wyoming "mud season" behind, which will be when most of you experience spring. (Spring - what a concept! 😉)

You thought I only painted mountains, and mountains in the winter at that. Not so. Below are a few that conjure up lovely warm breezes, islands and pina coladas:
Top of page: Squaretop Sunrise, triptych 22"x 42" (Okay, it is a mountain with snow.)
Above: Oh, I Wish (10" x 11"), Spring Break (Oahu Banzai Pipeline) 4" x 6", In My Dreams 10" x 11"
Commissions occupied my time this fall and winter. Here are several that found new homes:
Geyser Sunrise 11" x 10" (image)
Mt. Moran in September 11" x 10" image
A Magical Morning 16" x 24" (image)
Cricket's Mountain Getaway 22" x 42"
I may fire up my encaustic studio for a little variety soon. I haven't played with hot wax for a long time. Who doesn't love the sweet smell of melted beeswax!

Hollyhock Heaven, 12" x 12", watercolor stained rice paper, charcoal drawing on tracing paper, butterfly wings (sustainably sourced) and beeswax fusing all of the layers:
