Nature’s Symphony – Update 4: New Works Revealed
Flight, scarlet earth, and owl’s quiet wisdom Update Four brings three portraits of motion held in pause—from an owl gliding silently over prairie grasslands, a cardinal foraging amid pebbles and muted grass, to a great horned owl’s profile glowing against aged branches. Each painting captures nature’s poised energy: the hunter’s muted pursuit, the forager’s curious calm, and the sentinel’s…
Nature’s Symphony – Update 3: New Works Revealed
Mist, gold, and a wolf’s quiet pause Update Three presents 3 portraits where light reveals hidden depths—from a chickadee poised in silver fog, a sapsucker glowing against birch, and a wolf’s luminous gaze into vast blue. Each painting uncovers subtle wonders: delicate clarity through haze, patient radiance in the trees, profound solitude, and serene endurance. These works expand the…
Nature’s Symphony – Update 2: New Works Revealed
Glow through shadow, snow, and tropical mist Week Two brings three more portraits that trace light’s quiet dance across feather and season—from the hidden embers of a woodland warbler, to a chickadee’s brave glow amid falling snow, to the iridescent calm of a tropical tanager at rest. Each painting holds a moment where illumination reveals what the eye might otherwise miss: resilience in the…
Reflections on the Spokane Watercolor Society’s 2026 Exhibition
I’m pleased to share that my painting, “Timeless Refuge – American Kestrels,” has been awarded overall Second Place in the Spokane Watercolor Society’s 2026 Exhibition. The show is currently on view at the Northwest Museum of Arts and Culture, in the Helen South Alexander Gallery, and will continue through June 14th. This year’s exhibition was juried by Michael Holter, whose thoughtful selections…
Nature’s Symphony – Update 1: New Works Revealed
Muted moments in feather, fur, and winter light. As the exhibition opens, I’m beginning with three paintings that trace the quiet, everyday poetry of the natural world—moments often passed by, yet rich with light, stillness, and grace. Each piece in this first week’s collection invites a slower look: the hush between a woodpecker’s tapping, the gentle pause of a foraging rabbit, the clear note…

Salmagundi Club 48th Annual Open Exhibition
I’m delighted to share that my painting Where Sunlight Lingers – Sunflowers & Goldfinches has been juried into the Salmagundi Club’s 48th Annual Open Exhibition. The show will be on view in New York City from June 9 through June 26, 2026. This piece grew out of a simple but luminous moment—sunlight resting on late-season sunflowers in my father’s garden, sunflowers turning toward the late light,…
The Forest of One: Standing Tall in Your Own Light
The forest begins with a single tree. Before the canopy gathers into a living architecture, before the understory forms its soft green murmurs, before the birds choose their perches and the light learns how to fall between branches—there is one. One trunk. One root system. One quiet insistence on reaching upward. I return to that image often. The forest of one is not a contradiction; it is a…
Between Seasons and a Moment of Gratitudetitle
I’m honored and deeply grateful to share that my painting Between Seasons was awarded overall 5th place in this year’s Georgia Watercolor Society National Exhibition. This piece holds a quiet, personal significance for me. Between Seasons grew out of that subtle, shifting moment in nature when one season gives way to another—when colors soften, edges blur, and everything feels suspended in…
Light and Pause: Capturing Emotion in Quiet Moments
The first thing that draws me to paint is often not motion, but pause — a quiet moment of connection when the world seems to breathe. In those moments, light becomes a language of its own. It slips across fur, feathers, and water with a delicacy that invites reflection. Capturing that fleeting glow is as much about emotion as it is about technique. It’s about listening to the silence that nature…
Reinvention as a Lifelong Companion: Nature’s Gentle Cycles in Art and Life
Nature offers its lessons in whispers, not fanfare — each season a soft reminder that renewal is simply part of being alive. Spring nudges buds from resting branches, summer deepens into full leaf, autumn releases with graceful color, and winter tucks everything in for thoughtful repose. These cycles aren’t upheavals; they’re a natural rhythm of refreshment, inviting us to carry that same ease…
Harmony and Contrast: The Dual Nature of the Wild
Every time I study the natural world, I’m struck by its balance — not the balance of stillness, but of opposites coexisting in perfect rhythm. Nature holds both gentleness and power, light and shadow, stillness and motion. It’s this duality that makes it endlessly fascinating to paint. Harmony and contrast don’t compete in the wild; they shape each other, creating beauty that feels honest and…
Chasing the Light: On wonder, awareness, and trusting the rhythm of change.
Light moves differently in the woodlands. Some mornings it filters gently through the birch leaves, soft and silvery, painting the forest floor in shifting patterns. On clear days, it glances off prairie grasses, turning them briefly golden before slipping away. It never stays the same for long. You can’t quite keep it — only stand still and catch the moment while it passes. When I’m painting,…
Order in Chaos: Finding Beauty in Nature’s Imperfections
One of the most valuable lessons nature has taught me is that perfection rarely exists in the way we imagine it. In the wild, nothing is symmetrical or predictable for long. A leaf curls, a feather bends, light shifts unexpectedly — and yet, when you step back and take it all in, there’s harmony running through the chaos. That balance, subtle but ever‑present, is where I find the deepest…
Nature Reminding: Our Shared Endurance
There are moments in the wilderness when time seems to soften — a still pause between heartbeats, when the world reminds us of its strength and patience. Standing at the edge of a lake in early spring, watching the ice surrender its final hold, I feel that quiet lesson again: endurance. Nature endures, not through defiance, but through grace — through steady, unshaken faith in renewal. The trees…
Quiet Companions: The Comfort of Wild Neighbors
Every morning, as dawn softens the edges of the world, I step onto my porch and feel it — that gentle hum of life just beyond the threshold. A flicker of movement in the underbrush, the quick shadow of wings overhead, the rustle of unseen paws through grass. These are my wild neighbors, sharing this patch of earth with me, whether I live in the heart of untouched wilderness or the quiet fringe of…
