Paint Out PAANA, August 2013

Paint Out at Picture Canyon, Flagstaff Arizona. Beautiful day, it was a scramble to get down to the waterfall. There are lots of petroglyphys along the canyon wall. A fair start to a painting, I haven't ever painted moving water like that, so it was challenging, as are rocks! Always the challenge!

3 wonderful days of camping and painting at the North Rim of the Grand Canyon with my friend Jane Mulrooney. I don't have a finished painting to show for it (yet!), we did some sketching, had one morning of painting and I took some photos and we got a lot of inspiration!

Drawing workshop at The Peaks Senior Living, Flagstaff AZ

This is my first art teaching experience. The first class I had 10 students/residents of The Peaks. We had a lot of fun, a few of the folks had drawing/painting experience. It was wonderful to see them all enjoying the experience!

Lake Mary

Lower Lake Mary is one of my favorite places to paint in the summer in Flagstaff.

I just completed the most incredible 2 weeks as the artist in residence at Petrified Forest National Park. I was able to work on my art for many hours during the day, in addition to experiencing the beauty and silence of the park.
