Solitary Aspen - SOLD

Solitary Aspen

SOLD

There have been a lot of life-changing occurrences lately that have produced this accidental hiatus from painting, but I'm hoping to get back into the rhythm of painting often again.

I saw this beautiful aspen in Montana - its top half brightly illuminated by the sun and the bottom half in shadow.

I love wild roses - they are my favorite flower and have such a wonderful scent. My mother always loved them too, and they just naturally sprang up all over our yard with the native flowers & seeds my mother planted.

Staggering Ox show

My paintings will be featured at the Staggering Ox cafe in Billings beginning February 3rd and will be hung for a few months. You should stop by to see the art & enjoy a tasty sandwich! Staggering Ox has a great rustic-style gallery setup, and I'm excited to have my work featured there.

This is my mother & I taking a nap together when I was a few days old.

Expect updates on the blog to be sporadic at best for awhile. I'll return to regular painting/posting at some point and will continue to welcome e-mails in the interim.

Aqua show in the paper

There was a brief mention of my paintings in an article about Aqua Studio & Salon in the 1/30/09 edition of the Billings Gazette. The article also has a photo showing the art hall at Aqua.

My show at Aqua is done now, but it was a wonderful experience and I'm glad I had the opportunity to hang my paintings there.
