I've had an appreciation for watercolor art all my life, but only got around to giving it a try after retirement in 2022. Watercolor is a subtle medium, and I find beauty often hides in subtlety. The delicate color-blending properties of watercolor seem to closely re-create the nuances found in nature. My goal as a watercolorist is to help others see the intricate beauty of the natural world, and to encourage appreciation of our planet's wildness.
