The Boise Idaho Foothills Collection: A Hit Among Treasure Valley Art Lovers & Outdoor Enthusiasts
New art print collection featuring the Boise, Idaho Foothills
Halloween is my favorite holiday. OH, and I was accepted into the JKR Gallery show ‘AUTUMN APPARITIONS’ (aka: I’m in a halloween show)
Can you guess which painting I sent down for the show?
Aster Watercolor - September Birth Flower + Free Phone Lock Screen
Septembers birth flower is the Aster. These are blooming ALL OVER in the mountains right now!
August Birth Flower - Gladiolus - Free Phone Lock Screen
Have you ever been to Porky’s in Kauai?
Free July Birth Flower + Phone Lock Screen
The July lock screen feels summery and soft with this months birth flower, the Larkspur, in watercolor!

April Birth Flower + Free Phone Lock-Screen
Do you ever get in the habit of wishing time away (while at the same time wishing you had more hours in the day to accomplish things?). I know I do. One of the grounding mantras I’ve been repeating to myself for years is “Both feet in” - I don’t want to be a step in the future or a step in the past. I want to be here. I want to be all here, now.
Pray for Ukraine - March Birth Flower - Phone Lock Screen
Rebirth | Hope | Resilience.
Pray for Ukraine - free phone lock screen with the March birth flower
June Birth Flower Painting - Pink Roses
The smell of rose bushes is so wonderful, and I’m pretty sure that homey scent it coming from this June Birth Flower painting, too!
Colorful Acrylic Corn Painting
Have you ever spend the afternoon opening ears of corn (and panicking over earwigs that might be hiding in the shuck?) If so, this painting is for you.
Cattails Blowing in the Wind - Acrylic Painting
You would not believe the beautiful Schick-Ostolasa Farmstead (in Dry Creek, Idaho) these were painted on. The way these cattails blew in the wind and carried the sun was incredible - even though I worried.
Idaho Inspired Purple Sunset Mountain Painting
I have a secret to share 🤫
(*hint - it has to do with the Sawtooth Mountains in Idaho!)
Plein Air - Night Cattail Painting
Remember a while ago when I was telling you about the Eagle, Idaho Plein Air Art Festival? I told you all about my massive night painting fail.
Well, here’s what I actually ended up painting!
Outside the Bedroom Door
Have you ever moved into a new house, and it’s just totally overgrown? Or it’s winter, and you have no idea what’s going to show up in your yard once the spring starts?
The Pink Tree
This is the part of the story where I was unemployed from Thanksgiving until Valentine’s Day.
(Yiiiikes)
I love it enough
Here’s the thing about making art:
You might not love it. But I love my art, and I love it enough for both of us.
