Wisconsin Wildflowers

My family and I can look down our backyard into this spectacular view of wild flocks. Of course I had to ride my bike around to get closer views of what I think is this most amazing display we've had in years. Being up hill and looking down into the greenbelt, it truly does looks like a river of wildflowers.

Haiku-Pauwela

Painted this for my mom from a photo she took while in Hawaii. It looked like a challenge! I love the debth and light in the painting--the clouds were tough for me.

The Edge of Dusk

The process for painting this was a dream. Every once in a while you get one like this, that just flows so easily from start to finish. Love that!

The Wisconsin River

Went canoeing on the Wisconsin River for the first time last summer. It was literally my version of the perfect day--family, friends, nature, adventure... We hope to make it an annual tradition.

Three Littles

Have been craving color and also working on a lot of small canvases to just kind of play and experiment. The three here have juicy thick paint and really nice movement. I have had a great time painting these and hope to choose some of my favorites to do on larger canvases.

Hill in the Back

This gorgeous view is on the way to a favorite sled hill out in our backyard. We live up from a greenbelt and the views in the back always take my breath away. On this particular day there was the most beautiful light and shadows, and a warm glow around everything. It truly was one of those moments where life feels pretty amazing.
