First Light at Mount Rainier

22" x 30" Watercolor -

I've been wanting to paint this scene since I saw a great sunrise over Mount Rainier when I was up near Gig Harbor, Washington. The body of water is an inlet of Puget Sound.

Christmas Bug

This is the Christmas card I made this year (although I'm a tad late at posting it here). It's a computer illustration (drawn with a mouse of course).

I know what you are all thinking: "Those bugs don't have very good heaters! The hearty souls driving the classy little Bug must be either freezing or wearing a lot of clothes!"

I'll have you know that old-style VW drivers are resourceful folk! Heck, I used to have a cigarette-lighter-powered electric blanket in my VW bus, not to mention a wide assortment or gloves, stocking caps, blankets and fuzzy animal slippers that I kept in the closet (including matching pink garb for any females brave enough to ride around in the V-Dub during the height of winter).
