This is a commission of a watercolor for a French worship song entitled Heureux (which means happy). It is based on the Sermon on the Mount from Matthew 5,6, & 7. My pose/gesture of Jesus was based on an etching by Paul Gustave More. I filled in the rest of the composition to illustrate the "multitudes" that came to listen to Jesus.
And another commission I completed this year from a photo from Kodiak Island in Alaska.
Below is a very popular bird in South Central Alaska. It is very small and lives a life of flitting from one branch to another. It is called the Black Capped Chickadee.
Moose in Yard, is based on the many photos I have taken of moose passing through my yard here in South Central, Alaska.

This 11" x 15" watercolor is of Pioneer Peak Sunrise on a late fall morning in the Matanuska valley. The colors of the sunrise are reflecting on a recently frozen lake. It is now a notecard.
The Watercolor Sketch below is of a mother moose and her calf that appeared in our yard one spring. It was probably April. As the snow was melting and the temperature rose, it created a small pond that attracted the moose.
Bellow is a quick sketch of a photo I took in Northern California on one of or trips down south. My goal was just trying to catch the color of the sunset in the canal.
