Strumming in the Straw

  15" x 22"  watercolor  $750.00

My nephew sings Christian songs, plays guitar and enjoys nature.
The beautiful light streaming in from the door and shafted across his shoulder, arm, and guitar are spiritual in nature.  God's light is powerful, changing shapes, and strengthening and enlightening  our spirits.  Music is reflected in the straw shapes.

The Dreamer

15 x 11   watercolor    $95.00

What is she thinking about?  The wind is sculpting her hair, tangling it and bringing new scent to her nostrils while she muses about the little chipmunks she viewed today. She is like a chipmunk she thinks.  She is swift, she is curious, has a Mona Lisa smile, and sometimes she is afraid to come out of her room.  But not today.  Do you know why?

The Traveler

15" x 11"  watercolor   $125.00

Even in the arid and scorched Arizona heat, this traveler remained cool, calm and collected.  Perhaps it was the sunglasses, or the cool blue shirt or the red hat with beads.

The Sin of the Douoghnut




ink drawing on tile    6" x 6"   $35.00

She grabbed  the doughnut from the tree and quickly sprinted away.  The old serpent had coerced her again, convincing her that if the doughnut came from a tree it had no calories whatsoever.  She did not believe him, but she wanted to because her will power was absolutely gone.

Easter Lilies 2015

7" x 5"  watercolor    $$75.00

Look what the Easter Bunny brought to me!  It has bloomed and brought me joy all week long.
Amazing what a few soft white petals, spiky leaves and perky stamens can do for for our spirits.  Like a ballerina's skirts freshly pressed, these petals are crisp and satiny and a reminder of the purity of a baby's beating heart and soft breath.

A Strong Voice

14" x 14"  watercolor    $175.00

She has a strong Colorado voice that supports others. When you grow up with nothing, you learn to speak up for yourself, for your brothers and sisters and friends.  You learn early to trust your Savior. and sing ind a deep alto voice that glorifies Him.  She is a confident feminine leader and enjoys reading and learning with a determination surpassing her youth.  She loves to jump in the pool and play baseball and never worries about trying to keep up with fashion or the latest  new toy.  She knows that someday if she continues to work hard she will have all that she needs and more.  She is a responsible friend and you can lean on her staunch shoulders in rough times.
