"Little Step Falls” Skagway, AK

This painting captures the feel of wild and rushing water as it tumbles down a mountainside, covered with rocks and fallen trees. As if coming down steps the water cascades to the bottom, taking everything in its path with it, only to become a calm pool at the bottom.

“Tongass Narrows” Ketchikan, AK

The subject of this painting is taken from the coastal area along the Pacific Ocean just south of the town of Ketchikan. Reflections of trees in water and logs washed up along the shoreline give the viewer a sense of how natural the beauty is, while the hint of mist evokes a feeling of serenity.

"While we all hope that our children will do well in school, we hope with even greater fervor that they will do well in life. Our job is to help them know and appreciate themselves deeply, to be resilient in the face of adversity, to approach the world with zest, to find work that is satisfying, friends and spouses who are loving and loyal, and to hold a deep belief that they have something meaningful to contribute to the world."
