Honor Song

"Honor Song"  30" x 19"  watercolor

I had the great pleasure of meeting one of the nicest guys in the world, he's a fantastic dancer and is truly and inspiring mentor.  It's quite an honor watching him dance.  I look forward to creating some more paintings with him. 

Ribbons

 

"Ribbons"  17" x12" watercolor

 

I love it when the little ones are in the dance circle learning and carrying on traditions.  Some are focused and serious, some are wild and carefree, all are important.

Water Lily

Just something I was working on.  I enjoyed playing with a combination of focused realism and dreamy washy passages. 

Lakota

 

"Lakota" 19"x30"  Watercolor

 

This magical moment happened during an Honoring the Elder's powwow I attended, she was amongst the dancers, enjoying the music, the energetic dancing and dancing with her grandma. 

It's the little moments that really touch me.

I am honored to be accepted into IWS Mexico

 

"Hummingbird"  will be included in the International Watercolor Exhibit in Mexico City!  I am beyond excited as it has been a long time dream of my mom for my paintings to be shown in Mexico. It's doubly exciting that they have chosen a painting of her.
