Taking the Long View

One of the wonderful things about Albany, Mo is that the terrain is different over every hill. Last month, I took a new (to me) gravel road and rounded a turn to find this landscape. PanPastel on Global Premier paper and framed behind non-glare glass. 11x33. Original Available $375.

Dancing on Water

In the bright summer sunlight along the Missouri River in Parkville, MO, I saw these gulls hovering, diving, fishing, dancing on the waters. Original available (11x17) framed behind museum glass. ($245). Giclee prints available - both full painting and cropped versions starting @ $20.

Clover Field

One morning this summer, I was exploring the back roads when I found a fence post I thought would make a good painting. As I knelt down to take the photo, I looked to my right and saw these lovely bits of clover, brilliant in the morning light. SOLD. Giclee prints available starting at $20.

Forest Stream

My husband and I return to Rockbridge, MO every couple of years for a few days of peace and quiet and trout fishing. Last year we had more rain than sun, but when the sun finally came, the trout stream was filled with reflected and filtered light. This is a larger painting (12x24). The original is framed behind museum glass ($330). Giclee prints start at $20.

Irises

Last spring I visited an iris farm in northwest Missouri. Even though the skies threatened rain, the colors were beautiful - and of course I had to come home with a bag full of irises to plant at home. Framed original available 12x16. $235. Giclee prints from $20.

Checking for Traffic

Along a road between St. Joe and Helena, MO there is a beautiful red gate somewhat hidden in the underbrush. The gate became a painting of its own, but near the road were immense deer tracks. Naturally, I imagined a big buck standing there and checking for traffic before crossing to the grain fields beyond. The painting is 14x18 and framed with museum glass. Original Available $300. Giclee prints from $20.
