Rain on Whidbey


Living in the Northwest one quickly learns there are many days of rain. Large rains, small rains and just slight drizzles which are all depicted in this collage with rain falling over the forest of evergreens and over the surrounding oceans.

Friday Night

SOLD
Friday Night is a celebration shown as a buoyancy of liquid and bubbles floating in or out of a special glass. A toast to a week well done and to the upcoming weekend may it be spent with family and friends.

I added the circles, which might be confetti, balloons or olives.  Take your pick.

Ocean Aire

White Peacock

SOLD
White Peacock is an artwork inspired by the music of American impressionist composer, Charles Tomlinson Griffes.  I had played the piano version of the White Peacock for years and  enjoyed hearing the orchestral version.  But all the pictures of peacocks I had seen were the beautiful turquoise colored species,  So I did some research on the elusive white bird and decided he would look lovely in the moonlight.  So I placed my peacock in a rather exotic moonlit tree with a few sparkles in his feathers.
