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.
Dog sitting is fun for both of us.
Paco gets to play with dog friends and sleep on sofas.
I get to set up my art studio and leave paints and brushes and paintings laid out so I can easily and quickly pick up where I left off. π©πΌβπ¨
This morning, the weather was perfect, so I left the door open for the dog to enjoy it, too. I could hear Paco before I saw him, and watched in delight as he zoomed in and out of view.
A perfect start to the day. π₯°

We got to experience a taste of every season at our last campsite.
Snow, rain, wind, clouds, and warm, sunny bluebird skies, all within a week!
I`m grateful for the little diesel heater I installed in this van. Our first van didn`t have a heater, so we had some pretty cold moments that weren`t much fun. π₯Ά
Waking to 26Β° mornings isn`t so bad when we`re nice and toasty inside the van. ππΌ

Happy 9th birthday to the best canine companion I could ever have asked for! π₯³πΆ
From our first days of vanlife, through every season, every adventure, and every quiet moment in between, Paco has been my constant.
We`ve chased sunsets and squirrels, wandered new trails, and grown in so many ways.
I can only hope for a million more birthdays, a million more adventures, and a million more moments with this good boy by my side.
I love him more than I ever knew possible, and am grateful for all the joy he`s brought to my life. π₯Ή

Iβve been having so much fun painting these colorful little wood slice paintings.
If youβre in the Breckenridge, CO area, you can find these beauties at Limber Grove on Main Street - a locally-owned shop thatβs chock full of wonderful artwork from local artists.
Due to a busy art-related schedule this year, Iβll only be releasing 40 of these little paintings through my website this year - so act fast if you want one! Find the link to sign up for my (very sporadic) newsletter in my bio for early access to this yearβs release.
Now, back to painting! π©πΌβπ¨π¨ποΈ

A mountain mug in its natural habitat. Iβll never get over seeing my art in people`s homes; it makes my heart warm and fuzzy. π₯°
This is the `McCullough Gulch Road` mug, and the real McCullough Gulch Road lies just beyond the mountains in the background of this little video.
It`s not too early to start thinking about gifts for the tea drinker or overly caffeinated person in your life. Several paintings to choose from and you can personalize the interior and handle colors, too!

An honest, unedited behind-the-scenes look at the mayhem that erupts inside the van when rain arrives 3 hours before the forecast said it would, but I wasn`t ready to pack up the paints yet. π©πΌβπ¨π€ͺπΆ
I`ve been busily painting away these past couple of weeks. π©πΌβπ¨
The second large commission is complete (I can`t share it with you yet - but soon!) and I`ve moved on to much smaller paintings, which are technically also many tiny commissions. ππΌ
I`m ecstatic to spend so many hours working on art, and even better, is knowing all of these paintings are headed to new homes! π₯³
How many faces do YOU see? π€
While these trees have obviously experienced some trauma along the way, they continue to grow strong and tall. I`m not expert, but my guess is these cankers are scars from an infestation of some sort.
Whatever the cause, they hypnotize me and my camera roll is filled with so many more images than this.
