This painting was so much fun to do! I love the flowing water and rocks, the variety of colors in the water bouncing off the bottom, off submerged rocks, and splashing over and around the rocks. I hope you like it, too.

This painting just won an Honorable Mention at the Art from the Heart Show at Front Range Community College, College Hill Library, and sponsored by the Paletteers Art Club. I was very excited to have this work recognized. I loved painting the rock faces and had to mentally work through the dark areas on both sides and how much to leave less detailed. I think I finally got the right balance that would lead the viewer's eyes to the rushing texture of the waterfall which pools and then keeps on falling. I hope you like it as much as I do!

This is a wonderful glimpse into the Rocky Mountain National Park. If you haven’t visited, put it on your bucket list. There is one scene after another which will take your breath away! I struggled with the title for this painting, but I had to find a title that would really give the space meaning.  Thanks to all of those who made suggestions on my Facebook page. I think “Sacred Space” wraps a lot of your suggestions into one. This will be entered into the National Greeley Show next month—keep your fingers crossed that it is selected to be in the show.

This painting is from a photo that a friend gave me from her trip to England. I really liked the contrasts that I accomplished in the painting. I used Wallis sanded paper as the ground and a mix of soft pastels. This painting is matted and framed, ready for hanging in a 12” x 12” frame.
