This painting "Giraffe and Acacia Thorn" was done from one of my Africa photos taken in January of 2009 in Tanzania. I am getting ready for my "Africa" show in August of 2011 at the Rock Springs Fine Arts Center.

"Black Bear and Huckleberries" was done from a photograph that I took in Yellowstone last summer. We were there for one week and saw a total of seventeen different bears. This one was feeding on the huckleberries.

This painting of my friend Deb, called "High Country Cowgirl", was painted from one of her Facebook photos. I saw it and loved it and asked permission to paint it.
