Mt. Baker Tarn
Here’s another small painting that will be in my booth at the Bellevue Fair the weekend after next.
Another Kraken
This lady liked the Kraken backsplash I did a few months back so much she ordered one sort of like it. This one is adapted to wrap around in her space and the colors are more grey than blue, as the first one was. I hope it’s a trend!
Pika
Lately I’ve been painting, getting ready for the Bellevue Arts Museum Fair at the end of July. Here’s my latest, a pika at Mt. Rainier, 11” x 14”.
Sunset Surf
This nice big tub surround went home today. This will be 3’ wide on the right and left walls, 5’ on the back wall, tub to ceiling. There’s a window in the back wall, and the tile will come all the way to the floor in front of the tub.
MMAC
The Artist'‘s Tool Belt is installed on the Montana Museum Art & Culture! I went over Sunday and we mounted it Monday and grouted Tuesday. I’m really happy with how it looks but I must say it looks small on the building.
Beach scene
This is one wall of what will be a tub surround. This will go on your left as you look into the tub enclosure. The back wall will have a sunset and a surfer riding a wave.
Outdoor fireplace tiles
These tiles will go on the outside of an outdoor fireplace. They’re painted on 3” tiles because the end of it is rounded, in a tight enough curve that they needed to be that small. It’s 3’ straight on either side and the middle 4’ of this will be the rounded end. I hate working on 3’ tile.
Bluffs tile
I forgot to take a picture of the tile that went out of the studio today after sitting around for several months waiting for its new owners to come home from Arizona. So this is a picture of the drawing for that tile. The tile is 18” square and will be set like this, on the bias, over a stove. The madrone tree is on the bluff in front of their house in Port Townsend, WA.
Another Kraken!
Looks like this may become a popular image for backslashes. The other one had only been on the web site for a couple of weeks when this lady decided that’s what she wanted in her kitchen. The compass rose will go on a facing wall.
Flower tiles
The MT mural isn’t the only thing I’ve been working on lately. Here is a series of flower tiles to go in a shower. There are 85 of them in all, 8 different designs.
