Icy Winter Waterfalls

A few days ago we stopped by a local waterfall. It was surrounded by snow and frozen over in parts – just really beautiful!

In the first image, I love the icicles of course, but also the deep midnight blue of the water and the brown rocks.  In the second image, I especially like the big gush of water with the frozen boulder contrasting in front of it.

The day I took these photos was one of the first recent days we’ve had where the temperatures were above freezing – this is how we celebrated – LOL!

White-Throated Sparrow

One of the little birds that frequent our space – a White Throated Sparrow!

Please make note of the stylish, bright yellow eyebrows – LOL.

Zentangle Ribbons Mixed Media Fine Art

I just finished this one – a zentangle drawing against an abstract watercolor painting background. I called it “Zentangle Ribbons” because there are two-sided ribbons twisting through the piece, creating a subtle structure for the diverse shapes and textures in each area. More importantly, though, this was really fun to make! 🙂

I’ve adapted this piece for prints and products on a number of sites – feel free to browse!

Invisible Visitor

We had an invisible visitor the other day! I’m thinking it was either Max the greyhound from up the road or the Bumpus’s hound dogs from the other direction – LOL.

Diamond Plate Sky Macro Photograph

One of my favorite things to do in the laundromat is to stare at the wall.  *grin*  No, really! At least this half-wall that’s covered with those stainless steel, diamond-pattern plates that are often used in garages. In this particular landromat, the diamond plate wall sits opposite the large windows and reflects the sunlight and sky.

I love the scratchy scuffs that give this photo so much subtle texture too. Click on the image above to see more close-up details. And another terrific thing – this photograph is also available at the link above as a metal print! How cool is that?
