Writer/painter/hiker. Parent to two small kids and a ridiculous dog. I love the PNW, but part of my heart will always belong to Alaska where I grew up.

This little painting sketch reminds me that I should get back to miniature paintings. These days a large canvas feels like an intimidating time commitment.

First painting of 2025 done! This is a little painting for an old friend. Just need to get over my deep seated avoidance of going the post office and mail it to her.

I thought the #ArtAdventCalendar ended today, and I was saving this last piece to share. So here is another one of my happy places 🩷. May we all find peace and joy today!

Morning on the Marsh, a 16x20 acrylic painting on canvas. Ducks fly in the sky over a salt marsh, a few lines of trees are in the background, and the sky is lit with clouds of yellow and red.

Gnora tried to be a normal gnome:
- Hat: red.
-Coat: blue.
- Hair: a proper snowy white.
But behind her brass buttons beat a wild heart.
