"Stories of the Forest IV" is now on the way to its new home in California where it will join my two earlier drawings. Heartfelt thanks to the art collector whose connection to my art keeps growing.

Thank you Caroline Sainis for being such a wonderful host and to Lilly Parker and Susana Sandmann for a great company. It felt like being a small pop-up gallery.
A special thank you to the LOOS board of directors for all the work they put into organizing and promoting the event.

Many thanks to everyone who came to the Lake Oswego Open Studios this past weekend! It was a pleasure to see old friends and patrons, meet new art lovers, catch up, answer many thoughtful questions, see my drawings finding loving homes, and appreciate genuine interest in how my drawings are created.

This drawing is dedicated to dramatic sunsets between Newberg and Salem that I can never capture because there is no place to stop and I am driving. The trees are real, they exist somewhere in that area. The skies are just my memories of rain-soaked sunsets when colors blend together in wet air.
