Introducing the series Road Trip 2007

My cousin and I have traveled life together since we were children. We spent summers on her parents ranch where we ran barefoot in the sun, shared all our secrets and giggled under the covers at night until our mothers told us to hush up and go to sleep. They were still telling us the same thing to our teenage years. And so it continues. She has just returned from a trip to the East Coast, cross country from ocean to ocean and I have "traveled" with her via e-mail and photos. I would like to share her trip with you as she shared it with me. I hope you will enjoy my paintings of the Road Trip With GG as much as I have. Yes, we still share our secrets and giggle into the night. Some things will never change.

Vineyard Beauty


I love the vineyards that have roses at the end of each row. Of course there is a reason for them, but it does not alter the fact that it adds poetic charm to a picture. Now what is the story behind the roses?

Red Mountain grapes


I am back......I have been on hiatus for the past two months and it feels good to be back. I will be concentrating on a grape fields series which involves plein air paintings. In our part of the country the grape industry is booming and it is amazing to me as I grew up in this area, eastern Washington, and the grapes were nothing but Concords. Now they are planting wine grapes everywhere.
