Woods. Almost done. 22x50” #gouache on paper. From a detail of a photo taken in Olympia when I was there in 2008. Wondering how this might look translated into glass. #forestpainting never gets old #oregonforest #enchantedforest #landscapepainting #wishihadmoretimetopaint #forestbathing

Honored to have my work included in this stellar show at @ccsu_artgallery titled #silentspring. Curated by @priyangreen with the amazing artists @ashleyelizawilliams and @michele_lauriat Thank you @ebenkling for facilitating our discussion last night. I was very heartened by all the students and community members who showed up with their great questions and enthusiasm. Also want to thank the team at CCSU who hung the show. Such a great space to bring this work together.

From my last day in Manila. Drawing with my dad. In his apartment overlooking Manila Bay. Slides 3-4 = my dads painting from 10 years ago, hanging in the hallway, also an image of the cargo ships in Manila Bay. Some chess. A view. Last slide shows an old oil painting of mine from 1998 called “Canopy” hanging in their dining area. Love you dad. ❤️💚
