    This week I’m sharing more about my painting process.  While I’m specifically speaking about painting the palette for the Palettes of Keuka in this blog post, I follow a similar process for other projects.  I’ve compiled pictures of the process and video clips from the 100 Day Project that showed…

    Waterfall Wednesday: Unnamed Falls

    July 3, 2019 /

    This week we go to an unnamed waterfall in Buttermilk Falls State Park that almost wasn’t part of my 50 New York Waterfalls project.  I was conflicted about including an unnamed waterfall in the project when all the other waterfalls were main features with their own names.  Ultimately decided this…

    Waterfall Wednesday: Upper Triphammer Falls

    June 12, 2019 /

    I haven’t quite pinned down why this waterfall is one of my favorites.  Maybe it’s because it falls at angular steps.  Maybe it’s because it’s in such an urban setting.  Maybe it’s because it satisfies some need to find out where things start.  Maybe it’s the beautiful lake and waterlilies…
