A selection of my pastel and watercolor paintings are now installed at U.S. Bank in Estes Park through mid-January. All are available for sale through the Art Center of Estes Park. It's always nice to get artwork in front of the public. Thanks U.S. Bank!

"Skyward"
Yupo is an amazing surface for watercolor painting. It's a synthetic paper that actually repels the watercolor paint. As a watercolorist, I'm used to the paint working with the water to sink in and be absorbed by the paper. Yupo causes the paint to pool and run in unpredictable but fascinating ways. Alcohol can be sprayed on the paint to create even more effects. I've enjoyed experimenting with this aspen and ink on yupo series. Here's the latest!
