Title or Location: "Montana Ranch".
The watercolour is of a group of Hereford cattle grazing the grasses of the high plains in Montana with the foothills of the Rockies visible in the distance. I tried to keep my style loose by using a large brush and holding it higher up. I also worked without my glasses on. W&N tube paints were used on 140lb cold pressed paper.

Title or Location: Forest Shadows
The painting captures a striking maple tree standing among a grove of its kind, yet it bears a stark contrast to the others. Half of the tree appears lifeless, its branches skeletal and dark, while the other half clings to vibrancy, its leaves ablaze with autumn?s fiery hues. The wood itself tells a story?its colors shifting from deep black to a rich cherry hue, as if preserving the warmth of life. The leaves, seemingly aware of their fleeting time, have turned color earlier than the rest, glow
