In this new painting, I strove to convey the pristine, breathtaking look of Winter in Colorado. Its been snowing here in Pagosa Springs where I live and I felt particularly inspired. Sometimes I look out the window at the snowy wonderland and admire the beauty while at the same time, I am fascinated by how cold the season can get and I'm comforted by all the warm, cozy blankets around me =) Sometimes it feel like you can almost see the crystals forming in the air around you. I kept that thought in my mind while I painted and wanted to capture the fidget yet beautiful feeling of Winter. 

 

Better photos as well as photos of the framed painting coming soon!

Winter in the Rocky Mountains

I had an extended break following the completion of my Autumn Collection. It felt good to pick up the paintbrush and my paint markers. These small works are the start of my Winter Collection. Here I focused on early morning and night scenes.

Hand Painted Christmas Ornaments

This Holiday Season, I painted my first set of Christmas Ornaments. I created six and am so happy that they all sold soon after I released them. They are all traveling across the country to their new loving homes in Virginia, New York State, Michigan, New Jersey and New York City.

 

 

Stay tuned for more ornaments in 2023! I hope to create another set, hopefully in November =) I know that's pretty far in the distant future. 

 

This fun little project is more of a unique way for me to create miniature, affordable art to share with my audience, rather than something that I can sustain creating on a regular basis. Its a way for me to connect to folks who care about my art and what I do - my way to share my work on a more accessible scale. The bonus of that, with this particular project, is that these small round landscapes make perfect ornaments, though they can hang on a wall year round in a non-Christmas celebrating home. They are perfect tiny accents for a special nook of a room, adding a bit of nature's magic.

 

Colorado Central Cover Art

I am pleased to share that my painting "Celestial Mountain Night" has been chosen to be the cover art for the December issue of Colorado Central Magazine.  This is a regional magazine that aims to 'help to build a sense of place, a regional community, and a local culture in Central Colorado and the San Luis Valley. We have subscribers throughout Colorado, New Mexico, the U.S. and even overseas. 

I painted "Celestial Mountain Night" earlier in October for my son's 5th birthday so it being on the cover of a magazine that covers the region where he was born was an added bonus for us. Actually both my sons were born at SLV Health in Alamosa. 

As you can see both boys were excited to see a familiar image on the cover of this interesting and informative magazine. Just flipping through the pages, you can see that there is a lot of unique, original content. I'm really looking forward to reading each article.

Well, they got a little too excited a bit too quickly but thankfully no magazines were hurt in the process =)

 

If you turn to page 4, you will find a photo of me with one of my glass mosaic landscapes inspired by the most prominent mountain in the San Luis Valley, that is a beloved regional landmark seen from practically every part of the valley. On this page you can read a little bit about me and my artwork.
