'Spring Sky & Camas'


Though I had gone to paint the soul enriching Camas,
the clouds in the spring sky seemed to 
over take my efforts.
It was easier to watch the swallows too =;-))

'Cattle Point Camas'


This years Camas bloom at Cattle Point is nothing
 short of spectacular. However due to the areas rocky terrain
and this weekends heat and drying winds it will very
quickly start the inevitable dying off.
The time of the Camas always seems
to take forever to start but so 
soon to end...

'Camas Trail'


Finally, the Camas season has arrived! I painted
this piece on lovely spring day last week. We are about
three weeks behind last years blooming but happy
nonetheless. It is truly a magical experience to spend time
painting alone among these native flowers.

'Summer Evening-Uplands Park'

I painted this piece last week on one of those wonderful
summer evenings, the kind you dream about during
those cool wet days in the winter. Gone are the lush
drifts of blue camas, yellow butter cups and green
spring grasses, all have been replaced with the soft
yellow white grasses and red tinged sedges drying
amongst the rocky outcroppings. While I
painted the heat of the late day sun created
wonderful scents as it warmed the mature grasses
and the dried moss. The seed eating birds are were
very active feasting on the bounty of ripening seeds.
