My son and I went for a walk a couple weeks ago on a trail along the Little Spokane river. It’s a beautiful trail where sometimes you can see the river and sometimes it’s just a densely  pine tree shaded path.

In this painting you can see a little glimpse of the river and a house in the distance. I really like the way the tall trees on the left came out – I think those are my best trees so far, especially that red one. Sky-holes (where you can see sky or background through the greenery on a tree) are really hard for me, and I am always so pleased when it comes out just right.

*Price above is for a framed painting. If you prefer to purchase the painting unframed, either to hang frame-less or to have framed yourself, email me and I will set up a special invoice for you.

I started another larger (~12×20) painting of the farm fields in Eastern Washington yesterday, and am really happy with how it is turning out. I’m going for that feeling of dusk, with the red/green farm land, and purple mountains.

On a personal note, this has been a world-wind of a week. My son turned 3 on Saturday. Three! He’s growing so fast. It seems like he’s a completely different person from a year ago in certain ways, but still the same in the important ways – as sweet as can be, and gracious, and energetic. And then my husband had his birthday yesterday!  Happy birthday!

Hi all, you might have noticed the notice on the right (in blog). Just in case, here is the painting for the contest. Note, there is an option to choose a different small painting painted in April. Details below.

To celebrate the one year anniversary of this blog, I’ll be giving this painting away. To enter, make a comment (by clicking the word “Comment” above any post), or sign up as a facebook fan or for my newsletter.

The Light Through the Window painting is one of my favorites; I hope you like it. But the winner may choose a small (6 in x 8 in) available painting from April instead, if you prefer.

Hi all,

I am traveling and will not be uploading work until next Tuesday. Here’s a nice picture to look at while I’m gone. We’re in the MidWest right now – Minnisota and South Dakota. The weather is just like Seattle! Overcast and drizzle, but not too cold.

{Prints of this and other paintings are now available!  Email or visit my Etsy store to purchase.}

Thanks!
