Gold Beach OR King Tides

Leave a comment

Here is a second painting from our trip to Southern Oregon in May. This piece was inspired by our time at Gold Beach, Oregon, where we arrived during the King Tides. King tides occur when the moon is closest to the Earth, the Earth is closest to the sun, and the sun, moon, and Earth are in direct alignment. This alignment increases their gravitational influence on the tides.

Sara at Crescent City Beach

Leave a comment

We took a mini vacation to the Southern Oregon and Northern California coasts. I was captivated watching my granddaughter, Sara, gaze at the ocean and birds while we enjoyed the beach in Crescent City, California. I could feel her sense of wonder, just like mine, in the presence of this magnificent natural wonder. Fun fact; This is my first painting with a full person in it.

Bridge at Sisters Oregon

Leave a comment

In May, we took a quick trip to Sisters, Oregon, with our newest family member, Trex, the conversion van. While sitting at our campsite, I decided to bring out my paints and create. This is my interpretation of the bridge over the small creek at our camp. I find depicting water quite challenging, but I was pleased with how it turned out. I couldn’t resist including our new cargo van conversion in the painting as well. Additionally, I posted a couple of photos of camp and our van.

McKenzie River OR at Belknap

Leave a comment

The McKenzie River in Oregon is truly stunning. This is my attempt to capture some of its beauty. I took this photo at Belknap Hot Springs, where the McKenzie River flows right next to the campground and hot springs. We recently bought a Ford Transit Van for our travels and camping adventures. Below, you can see our van superimposed onto my painting. Many exciting trips await us!

Kayak Girl

Leave a comment

Good Afternoon everyone. I’m excited to show my newest complete piece. It is Kayak Girl. She was quite a challene as she kept looking like she was laying in the Kayak. In the end, I was able to figure it out. When I look at her I long for the summer when we can kayak again. It is one of my most relaxing activities. Wishing everyone a relaxing Tuesday.
