Ole

This is a painting of a neighbor's dog that I did as a surprise because he so kindly made me beautiful jewelery out of rocks I collected during my explorations. Ole is so smart he learned how to open the front door. My friends quickly taught him to close it as well after he enters...who needs a doggie door.

Summer Cruising

I've been out on my floating home exploring Southeast Alaska. Despite the time demands of fly fishing, kayaking and salmon mooching, I managed to paint a few paintings. We saw

lots of bears so it is not surprising I painted a couple.

And right before I left, I went to the mainland and found some tern nests at the base of a glacier. I was inspired to paint an Arctic tern.
