Ooops.  I've gotten a little lax about keeping up with my blogs.  I think life just swept me up this summers and it was all I could do to keep my feet under me.  Now, as fall settles in, I am finding myself slowing down a little - and LOVING it.  So - here's to more painting and more blogging.  Yahoooo!

The blue guy above is a painting I finished recently (inspired from mountain trips in Colorado and Wyoming). They are funny looking creatures, aren't they? But magnificent!! It always gives me a rush when I see one in their natural habitat. Of course, it thrills me when I see a chipmunk in it's natural habitat!

Hope you enjoy!  Have a fantabulous day.

Went to a killer workshop in Telluride a couple of weeks ago (before the snow started flying) to learn from Shawna Moore (encaustic artist extraordinaire) and Rebecca Crowell (incredible cold wax artist). I have been admiring their work for quite some time and was thrilled when I found out they were coming to Colorado!

I was so enthused that I came home from the workshop with 10 new paintings! This is one of them. It's encaustic (hot wax) and it told me it wanted to be soothing. Lots of cool colors with depth.

I'm heading to the studio right now to create more encaustics!!
