Many people visiting Estes Park, Colorado have no idea they’re standing in the shadow of an ancient volcano. 🌋 P.S. I’ve been practicing my plein air watercolors in a smaller format in anticipation of the upcoming PAAC exhibition next week.

Spring has sprung! (At least in the art studio). If you’re in the Fort Collins, Colorado area and would like to stop by my new studio at 3 Square Gallery, just let me know!

In this week's vlog, the weather presents a breezy challenge as we paint a springtime scene in Fossil Creek Park. I share how I paint mountain clouds and budding trees, as well as foreground grass with an inexpensive ink brush.

In this week's vlog, I finally finish cleaning and organizing my cluttered art studio. Hooray! I also go on a movie/dinner date, and explore a popular kitchen shop in Old Town, Fort Collins.

My most recent! Painted on location until a thunderstorm rumbled in: a 9 x 12” watercolor of Twin Sisters Peak as seen from Upper Beaver Meadows (Rocky Mountain National Park).

P.S. Stay tuned for the upcoming video…
