Worth every black fly bite to get up there and paint. What a serene view.

Thank you, Frontside Coffee Roasters for devoting a wall for local artists to share their work. Really means a lot.

If you missed my show last month, remaining pieces (and a few new ones) are up on my website.

Stop fighting the color trap: buying dozens of pigments to find the perfect color(s) for your project.

I just dropped three FREE demo workshops into my calendar that might help. An online Summer Series!

Three workshops spread across June, July, and August focus on pigment learning:
👉 Mixing Greens June 27
👉 the Split Color Wheel July 25
👉 Watercolor Pigment Qualities August 29

Open to everyone at all skill levels.

These 60-90 minute FREE online events are treated as demonstrations rather than formal lessons, you can work alongside me or watch and take notes.

For those who can't make the date but want to learn, each event will be recorded.

I've helped hundreds of people over 25+ years, guiding them through phases of their art practice to reach personal creative and nature-connection goals.

Maybe this is what you need.

Have a look! My FREE demos are super fun, relaxed, and loaded with useful tips.

Strategery. 🤔

I figured out all sorts of ways to set myself up in the front seat of my car.
