I use my small watercolor kit to document the places I experience while traveling and working on tje road. I was able to spend most of the winter in Arizona, spending time in the unique Sonoran desert. Where each saguaro cacti has its own personality within the Sonoran's surreal landscape.

Title or Location: River and Trees
When I make these watercolor paintings, I'm aware that cameras and AI can make the art much faster than me. So I make these paintings using techniques that optimize the strengths of this medium.Exaggerated color palettes and wild brush strokes give the viewer a stronger sense of the communication happening between my mind, eyes, and hand as I make art. It's very low tech and personal. There are faster ways to make art, but none that express me better.

This is a fantasy landscape inspired by old world charm. I gave it the title because of the little grouping near the center of interest looks like a medieval camp when you zoom in on it.

Title or Location: Standing Tall and Proud
Sunflowers are one of my favorite flowers, so naturally I enjoy painting them. They always present with something new to learn while going through the painting process, as I find that no two are alike. I'm also a photographer so I have several images to choose from, but this one was telling me how proud she is to have such beauty so I selected it to create a piece of fine art from.
