I love camping. Sometimes I wish I could just spend weeks away from civilization but there are things I have to do. Living in the desert has made me appreciate the pine forests even more as it's such a contrast from what I see every day. I love to be able to go hiking where you can't hear cars riding on the road or the sounds of crowds gathering. It's relaxing to be able to simplify life that way.
I'm excited to be starting this next piece of the pine woods on Mt. Lemmon near Tucson, AZ. Not only will I get to play will great textures but I will also be able to reflect on memories of camping with family.

day three
This is the third day's work on this piece. There are a few bugs to still work out but so far I think it's going fairly well.
Sometimes I look at my pallete and think it's a work of art that's always evolving. Even though it's always changing it still seems a stable structure I can count on.

starting Olea
This is the first day of work on the Olea piece. I hope to be able to show a sequence of working through posting in progress pictures on here. One the left is the preliminary sketch and on the right is the started watercolor.
chenencoux
The following watercolor was completed a few months back as part of a few watercolors a did of structures in France. This particular painting is of Chenencoux. One of my favorite chateux in France. I loved this area of France in the Loire Valley and hope to go back one day.
