"Winter Wonderland"

I think it's supposed to snow here this weekend and I must be excited about that because I seem to be in the mood to paint snow.  I started this painting last fall and today decided to turn it into a winter wonderland.

"View from my Studio Window"

This painting was started last year but not finished.  Today I decided to add a little more snow and call it done.

"Wednesday Morning"

Titles are not always easy.  I painted this still life on a Wednesday morning in Rich's class, so there's where it comes from.  Anyway, this little piece is up for auction this coming Friday (11/9) for a radio station fundraiser in Alamosa, Colorado!!

"Snowfall on Mabel's House"

It's (hopefully) going to snow soon here in Taos and so I wanted to paint something for the season.  I painted this little gem last Wednesday in my class with Rich from a photograph he had in his library.

"Morning Under the John Dunn Bridge"

This was painted on location with my Thursday painting group.  My painting doesn't do any justice to how beautiful it was to get there at about 8:30 in the morning and witness the sun coming up over this magnificent part of the Rio Grande Gorge.  It absolutely took my breath away!

"On the way to Wheeler Peak"

This was painted one (very cold) morning with my Thursday group of artist friends.  Very popular hike up in the Taos Ski Valley - it was pretty much the very last of the aspens changing.
