Rock Star Scenes from the Southwest Watercolor on board - 11”

Watercolor on board - 11” x 9”

the hills of California are carpeted with these showy orange California poppies (Eschscholzia californica)

Occasionally I will spy one hanging out in my yard – always a treat… recently I had a stare down with one of them out my kitchen window while he sat on my wall peeking in

these elegant blooms keep going all through the summer

Italy in the heart of Umbria

Rock Star Scenes from the Southwest Watercolor on board - 11”Watercolor on gallery wrapped canvas 20 x 20 When I am not busy working in the studio I like to spend time outdoors hiking. The trails in the McDowell Mountains near my Scottsdale home are a favorite of mine. Pinnacle Peak is one of the most iconic and recognizable rock formations and this painting is from the area surrounding that popular hiking spot.
