A recent painting of a playful litter of coyote puppies. They thoroughly enjoyed chasing each other until they were fully exhausted. I think I may have had as much fun, just watching them, as they seemed to be having in their playful romps. I loved the energy, textures involved […] Read more »
Masters in Miniature Opens in Jackson Hole
This is my bobcat kitten painting, recently completed. I loved his active stance…he was in pursuit of something that caught his eye, perched on a rock ready to pounce. I was also drawn to the bold glow of color to glaze in throughout the painting. This piece will be included with my […] Read more »

Pensive Coyote Painting

Painting Motion – Hummingbird
This hummingbird piece, more or less, is a reflection on suspension and motion.

They are […] Read more »
