It’s been a busy summer here-so I’m squeaking this in under the wire for the month! I’ve got a couple secret projects I’m working on that I have to keep under my hat, but here are some paintings that I can share that I’ve finished recently.
I’ve been working on a series of paintings all about the joy of getting in a canoe or kayak on the amazing lakes in the area.
Send me all your lake recs-small and big! I don’t have a kayak of my own, but I’ll figure out a way to get on the water.
This painting has been on my to do list for a long time. The way the light hit this hill on my way back from Pullman to Spokane really caught my eye!
This painting was inspired by a photo taken by a delightful art patron of mine-the view down Riverside!
I’m really thrilled with this painting-its going to be my Christmas card for this year. If you commission a painting from me or buy a large original work, you also get a Christmas card from me for that year. Just sayin’! :)
And if you need an opportunity to buy some of my art-I’ll be at the Little Spokane River Artist Studio tour at Collista’s studio (the furthest north). I’ll have all original work only, but I will be taking pre-orders for my 2024 calendar with a sample that you can flip through.
This painting is hanging at Terra Blanca Winery for this month as part of the preview show for the Little Spokane River Artist Studio tour. Stop on by if you want to get an idea of what kind of art will be at the show!
CLASSES
So I just finished my Painting Watercolor Flowers class at the Spokane Art School and it was great! If you’d like to take classes with me for the fall, check out my events page-HERE. My last plein air class of the year is in Browne’s Addition on the 9th of September-we’ll be sketching the historic houses near the NW Museum of Art and Culture. I’ll have a Paint & Sip with them in October and I have two classes coming up at the Corbin Art Center, both new classes and something a little different from my usual-I hope you’ll join me in drawing and painting a “favorite spot” or making an accordion book of Spokane landmarks. See you out there!
