A nomadic Artist, living and creating in a self-converted van, I paint in a jubilant riot of color to harness the splendor of landscapes through which I travel.

The first week of my @LOGEcamps Artist Residency flew by! Thankfully, I've still got two weeks left. πŸ₯³

I'm excited about this new painting and loving how it's all coming together. I hope to finish it over the next couple of days, and then I'll start painting new works! πŸ™Œ

The cafe here is a favorite with locals, and I've enjoyed all the conversations and learning more about the area. Paco and I will resume our positions in the lobby this afternoon, so if you're in the Leavenworth, WA area, swing by and say hello! πŸ‘‹

Ornaments galore!

I spend my mornings painting in the lobby, and evenings painting ornaments in my room. I've got exciting news about where these little guys are headed, but 🀐 until the weekend!

This year's ornament collection will go LIVE on my website Nov 6th! πŸ₯³

Painting is coming along! πŸ™ŒπŸΌ

It's been so much fun getting to know the crew here at the Leavenworth @Logecamps and exploring the town. 

I'm having fun painting in the lobby and meeting the locals who swing through for coffee and the travelers here for vacations. 

Paco has made new dog friends and gotten SO many treats and pets as he naps patiently while I paint.

This is so much fun and I'm so glad we have a couple weeks left to create and explore more! πŸ₯³πŸ‘©πŸΌβ€πŸŽ¨πŸΆ

Three new paintings inspired by my stay on Whidbey Island, WA. 

Today, they're getting a coat of varnish and wired up so they'll be ready to hang in their new homes. 

Look for them to hit my website shop tomorrow!

Day 1 of painting in a hotel room. 

The start of a new painting is the most vulnerable part of the entire process for me. It's that moment of creation where you aren't really sure what magic is going to come from your hand/paintbrush/pencil, and that's both exciting and terrifying. 

That's why I tend to hole up and hide away when I'm beginning a new painting, I have to get it laid out first before I can lay it - aka myself - out for others to witness. 

I don't typically sketch out paintings this thoroughly, but I admit I was a little nervous about it, so I laid out more details than usual. My normal method is to loosely sketch out basic shapes and outlines, then intuitively fill in the rest with paint. But this isn't a typical situation, and I wanted to get everything worked out before I move to a public setting to start filling it in with color. 

To break the anxiety ice, I started working on the sky while still in my room. I'm feeling good about it all and love the larger format, so it's down to the lobby we go! πŸ™ŒπŸΌπŸ‘©πŸΌβ€πŸŽ¨
