Mixed Media Paintings







When I am doing mixed media I use a variety of different things. Watercolors, colored pencils, acrylics, graphite, pastels and even charcoal. These particular paintings were done with a watercolor underpainting and then Prisma colored pencil and acrylics.

Our trip to the California Coast


I just love the west coastline. I think that Oregon has the prettiest of them all though. They can keep San Francisco, but the rest of the coast is beautiful. I just don't like big cities. Especially big cities with narrow roads and lots of traffic on them. Ugh....I am still realing from our trip to that city and the Bay Bridge. Not for me, nope. I would rather be at a beautiful rocky beach that isn't populated by hundreds of people. Anyway, here is a pretty photo of one of the many sun sets that I photographed while there. I think I took about four hundred photos!
