Outdoor Spaces Outdoor places to enjoy. A circle around a fire is a pleasure on a warm afternoon. Waiting to light the spark that will bring heat and a conversation to remember. Spaces to breathe and to relax. A place to call home and a country to enjoy. I sit here and ponder the beautiful landscape as I dream in color. A way to pass the time and a goal to achieve. I love the mountains and the valleys as […]

Horses On A Hillside During the month of May in the Methow Valley the Arrowleaf Balsamroot flower grows wild on the hillsides and is fragrant and beautiful. I love to ride my mountain bike along the trails and breathe deeply of the soft scents blowing in the wind. On this particular day I looked up and saw these pretty horses getting lunch up off the trail. I always carry my camera with me and so I pulled it out and […]

A Surprise Sunset Visit Landscape Painting I always think of sunsets as peaceful. The coming of the end of our days. Well not quite that extreme but a resting time all the same. To me these bright and beautiful colors signal my senses to start winding down and thinking of wrapping up in anticipation of sleep. So to me peace and rest go hand in hand and at the end of the day I hope for both 🙂

Life is like a landscape. You live in the midst of it but can describe it only from the vantage point of distance. ~Charles Lindbergh

Patterson Lake Cabins and Mt Gardner On the East slope of the Cascade Mountain Range is Patterson Lake. In the distance is Mt Gardner showing a light brush of snow coverings its face. This lake is a special reservoir that captures water and slowly lets it feed down into the valley below. In the summer we swim and enjoy many water sports here and in the winter we ski by on way to the Lodge for wine and hot drinks. […]

You can’t depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus. ~Mark Twain

A Cloudy Afternoon Abstract Landscape Painting I am looking to the sky in the spring and wondering just what it is that is looking back at me. I see an explosion of sunshine behind a very interesting looking cloud. This cloud reminds me of a flying hippopotamus. I see its large squarish face and massive body flying through the sky. Where is this very large imaginary animal flying to and what will await it once it gets there? I love […]

The way is not in the sky. The way is in the heart. ~Buddha

Clouds Loving a Friendly Mountain Look to the sky and what do you see? Do you imagine something looking back at you? Do you see various scenes playing out and actors on a stage. Are the sight of these floating bits of water enough to interest your imagination or do you see white fluffy indications of weather? Each person relates to abstract images in their own way. I have this really intense imagination that makes images out of random shapes […]
