KM2130 Sun and Aspens

SOLD

I seem to be stuck on paintings from the Crested Butte area. The sun in the aspen trees surrounded by meadows filled with wildflowers is irresistable to me.

KM2128 Side Street in Florence

SOLD

I found this little scene while in Florence, Italy wandering around and peeking into all the side streets which is where I found this little courtyard. What a scene with the sunlit walls, lush growth all around and the sense of wonder of what it is like to live there.

KM2127 Perched

SOLD

I am having a great time painting subjects other than landscapes and florals. It is great to expand my horizons and of course anything in the animal world is a passion for me. Birds are such a wonderful part of our world, seemingly so free in flight and and their songs in the spring are like a symphony on my walks.

KM2126 Storm is Brewing

SOLD

I did this painting as a study for a larger piece for Sacred Dancing Gallery where I show in Bigfork, Montana. The scene is outside of Crested Butte on Kebler Pass in July. One of our typical afternoon Colorado storms was moving in and lighting up the hillside which was contrasted by the ominous, dark gray,blue/violet clouds. I'll be posting the larger one I did on my website next week.

I forgot to photograph this painting before varnishing it, so there is a bit of a sheen on it from the light reflecting off the varnish. Got ahead of myself!!!

This little floral makes a big statement with its cheery, bright yellow colors and the flowers looking up to the sun, seemingly in a poetic dance. Such a joy to paint!!!!

KM2123 Poppy Field

"Poppy Fields" was inspired from a great trip to Italy one spring. Everywhere we seemed to go we found these lush red fields of poppies brightening up the landscape.

KM2122 Brilliant Yellow Poppies

SOLD

This scene was inspired because I loved the combination of hardy California poppies in and amongst the delicate small white flowers. I really love to zoom in on a scene making a close-up composition giving the flowers importance.

KM2121 Spring in the Cotswolds

SOLD

This scene was found while walking around the beautiful town of Chipping Camden in the Cotswolds of England. It seemed that every home we came upon had beautiful, luscious and prolific gardens.

KM2120 On Walden Pond

SOLD

This serene scene was really on Walden Pond when I was in New England a few years ago. It was such an incredible walk around the pond and a thrill to be where Thoreau wrote his expose.

KM2119 Fleeting Moment

SOLD
What scene this was last August while in Waterton, Canada, a little town in the Canadian portion of Glacier National Park. Watching the sun set with a glass of wine in hand sitting in the lodge that overlooked this scene was more than memorable and an absolute treat to paint.

KM2105 Warm with Spring

SOLD


This rich scene was painted from one of hundreds of pictures I took of this incredible garden found here in Denver last spring. It was a spectacle of oranges, purples greens in the form of poppies, iris and Queen Ann's Lace. I met the lady who has had the garden for many years and love the wildnesss of it. It has a lifetime of compositions to paint! Look for more to come in the future.

KM2118 Greek Church

SOLD

I found this scene last May while visiting Greece with my husband Jim. We were hiking one of the hills on the island of Hydra when I turned around and saw this church with the beautiful contrast of the white cross with the blue sky. I also as a painter was drawn to the beautiful textures on the hill in front of the church.

KM2117 Alive with Yellow

SOLD

Spring is in the air here in Denver today. Walking my little dog Farley I can smell the new life in the blossoming trees and see it in the vibrant colors of the daffodils, tulips and and hyacinths that are popping up everywhere! Thus, I had to do another floral to feed my soul!

KM2114 Sunshine on My Shoulders

SOLD
I seem to be hung up on song titles and John Denver's song, Sunshine on my Shoulders keeps playing in my head. I guess I am ready to be done with winter and have some spring days with no wind, and sun shining on me in 70 degree temps. This sunlit path makes me feel the summer warmth. I did this landscape from a photo taken at our Denver Botanic Gardens late last summer. It was one of those perfect Colorado Days my mother used to refer to as "Champaign Days"

KM2113 Field of Dreams

SOLD

Meadows full of flowers, when does it get any better? This scene is atop Kenosha Pass here in Colorado where I find an abundance of painting reference almost year round... spring and summer meadows of flowers and Aspen groves abundant with summer wildflowers and the changing golden colors of fall.

KM2053 Still Reflections

SOLD

The Maroon Bells Wilderness area outside of Aspen, Colorado has magnificent sights to paint and photograph. Fall is ablaze in golden hues from the Aspen trees that grow up and down the steep glacier carved hills. Maroon Lake, surrounded by fields of wildflowers, mirrors images of the Maroon Bells in it's waters.
It is a place to visit spring, summer and fall and is pristine in each season.

KM2111 The Road not Taken

SOLD

I painted this landscape because I love how roads take you somewhere, sometimes to places known but sometimes not, leaving a sense of wonder as to what is around the next bend. This road, lush with summer greens and wildflowers along the side was found one summer while in Crested Butte, Colorado.

Back to springtime in Denver!. This little scene is a teaser for what is yet to come at our Botanic Gardens here in Denver. I found this scene last summer.

KM2107 Cotswold Garden

SOLD

The English are the ultimate gardeners! Springtime in the Cotswolds is a feast for a painter like myself in constant search of floral painting ideas. I could have spent far more days wandering in the Cotswolds with the friendly people, lush gardens, and just outside this town of Chipping Camden were lush green pastures with sheep grazing everywhere. I have a lifetime of paintings to create from this area.
