I’m used to seeing my artwork in black frames…. But these brown frames… gotta say I love it! 😍 🤩
💙 I’m thrilled to reveal my latest piece—Colchuck Lake, part of my upcoming Adventure Series 2025. This hike was particularly special, as I got to experience it with one of my oldest friends from England who was visiting me this summer and my partner. Now I truly understand why this hike is so beloved. If you go now before the snow hits, you will see all the larch trees in their beautiful fall colors 🍂 🍁
The hues of blue in the lake inspired me deeply, and I poured that feeling into the artwork. Though it won’t be available on my website until next year, I wanted to give you a glimpse into the creative process behind it. And yes, I’ll also be drawing some local scenes next year, so expect more than my usual four pieces.
Stay tuned for even more art to come!

Here’s a time-lapse of my drawing of the stunning Jade Lake in the Snoqualmie region!

This might be my favorite customer story yet! Kimberly, an amazing mom of two, and her husband took their family on a day trip hike to Redtop Lookout after being inspired by my artwork at the Roslyn Farmers Market. Creating art that inspires memories like this is exactly why I do what I do. 🥰

Does this look familiar? 🌲✨ Watch as my artwork aligns with the sandstone rock formation in the Teanaway—it’s a glimpse into the beauty that Cle Elum has to offer. 🌄 When my drawing drops, you’ll see the real landscape that inspired it.
This is more than just art—it’s an invitation to explore. Turn my drawings into your day trip bucket list and discover the natural wonders of Kittitas County. Each place I’ve sketched has its own story, waiting for you to experience it firsthand. 🌿 Where will your adventure lead you next?

Spent the day exploring Olympic National Park, and it was absolutely magical! 🌲 The Sol Duc Falls hike blew me away with its beauty—it’s a must-see if you’re in Washington and love waterfalls!
If you’re looking to connect with nature, I highly recommend making the time to visit our incredible national parks. The experience is nothing short of unforgettable and really has a mystical, enchanted forest vibe about it! Bring a decent rain jacket, it’s a wet part of the state, even in summer!
Think I’m going to have to draw this!

The colors on this blanket are unreal! I only put my artwork on quality products and I am super impressed with this queen size, super soft, thick fleece blanket 🤩 That was a mouthful. I’ve washed these and tumbled dried them 7 times already and the colors don’t fade.
When they’re delivered they are vacuumed sealed so I put them straight in the tumble drier for 10 minutes to get the creases out and that works perfectly 🥰
Choose a n y of my original artwork for your blanket and cosy up on your bed or sofa. Blankets retail for $110 and can be ordered on my website 💻 with speedy shipping to any state 📦 or with me in person at the Roslyn or Ellensburg farmers markets in WA 🇺🇸

Yesterday I hiked the Granite Ledges Trail in North Bend, Washington, and it’s truly a hidden gem!
The panoramic views of the Snoqualmie Valley and Mount Si took my breath away. On a clear day, you can even see Mount Rainier in the distance!
If you’re looking for a hike with breathtaking scenery and a touch of history, I highly recommend Granite Ledges Trail. Happy hiking! 🌲🏔️ #ILoveCleElum #GraniteLedgesTrail #NorthBend #PNWAdventures #HikingWashington #naturelovers

🌲✨ From Hikes to Art: The Journey of Creation ✨🌲
Hey #PacificNorthwest friends! Ever wondered how my art comes to life? Let me take you behind the scenes of my creative process!
Step 1: Adventure Time! 🏞️ My journey starts with a hike through our breathtaking local spots. Sometimes, I use Brendan’s trusty drone to capture the perfect shot. Special shoutout to @bigmountainb my incredible adventure buddy and skilled photographer with an eye for the extraordinary! 📸
Step 2: Drawing Inspiration ✏️ With a stunning photo as my reference, I sit down to draw with my iPad and apple pen. 🖊️ Drawing from memory alone isn’t my style – it’s the beauty of our surroundings that fuels my creativity.
Step 3: Bringing It to Life 🖨️ Once the drawing is complete, I head to my local print shop. They help turn my work into beautiful prints.
Step 4: Framing with Care 🖼️ I personally frame each piece, package it with love, and get ready for market day.
Step 5: Community Connection 🏕️ Setting up my vendor tent at the local farmers market is the highlight of my week. Meeting so many wonderful people who share their warmth, friendliness, and interest in my work always makes my day!
Thank you for being part of this journey. Your support means the world to me! 🌎❤️
Let me know what you’d like me to draw next 🥰
