“Yosemite Falls After a Storm”
Media: Watercolor
Approx. Size: 18”x28”
Price: $275
Arrived in Yosemite in the midst of a drought with no water running in the Falls. By afternoon it clouded up, got really dark, and the valley boomed with thunder and lightening in a deluge of rain as a quick spring storm passed through. When the clouds began to clear, the Falls took their turn to thunder. I sat before them to paint this plein air.

When it gets hot in the Sierras, it’s time for me to head to the coast and feel the wind off the water as the waves crash close to shore. This was painted plein air at Marina Beach.

“Baile Folklorico, on the Streets of Columbia”

I recently found out that the very first Cinco de Mayo celebration was held in California in Tuolumne County. There, the historic Wild West town of Columbia celebrates every year with food and entertainment which are not to be missed. Here I tried to capture the patterns and colors of the dancers dresses as they swirled and stamped to traditional music.

“Wet Feet”
Media: Watercolor
Size: 6”x6” framed
Price: $SOLD
I’ve had golden retrievers all my adult life. Thought my latest “Wilson” would be a great companion hiking and fishing. Unfortunately I quickly realized that his playful nature would not allow him be still. So now when I go with him to the lake, he gets to fish and play and I get to have fun watching. Animal lovers, don’t worry as he’s never caught anything … we both just love the water play.

Every year I paint an original watercolor depicting Sierra Quilt Guild’s Opportunity Quilt.

The 2024 quilt made me think of a walk surrounded by the Fall colors of the Sierra foothills while snuggling up to my husband.

“Three Deer in the Forest, Lower Yosemite Falls Trail”
Media: Watercolor
Size: Approx. 28”x20 framed
Price: $450
On our way back from Yosemite Falls last Spring, I stopped to tie my shoelace, when I froze when I heard a cough. Right in front of me was a huge buck blinking his eyes. When he went back to sleep (I figured he was OK with my proximity) so I slowly reached for my camera. When I looked through the lens I not only saw him, but also two more huge bucks camouflaged in the forest. I had almost missed them as I hurried down the trail, just as many other hikers were passing by unaware. This is my reminder dear to stop and slow down and enjoy the wonderful surprises that are waiting to be discovered when you do.
