- In this week's vlog, I paint a simple watercolor scene from my recent trip to Taos, New Mexico. I'm still recovering from a bad bronchial bug, so there's not much in the way of me talking.
Rabbitbrush is one of my all-time favorite native plants, as it provides late-blooming nectar for all the butterflies and just looks terrific this time of year. Hopefully I can get outside and paint soon, as the first snows of the season are coming.
And speaking of soon -- the show is almost over! If you're in the Taos area, please stop by to see my artwork at the Blumenschein Home & Museum:

Beautiful. What a relaxing way to start the weekend. I hope you're feeling better soon.
Thanks so much, fellow Laura! 🥰 I am much improved over this time last week....
Gorgeous. Loving watching your brushwork and techniques to create such a lovely scene.
Many thanks, Suzanne! I love watching other artist's brushwork, as well. It's like we all have our own unique "handwriting". :)
Powerful scene. What wonderful moodiness.
It was an inspiring spot, to be sure! I can only hope to convey a little bit of it. Thanks again, dear Terri, for your kind feedback. :)
No problem. I hope more people find you on your channel. It's nice to have a calm, but funny, voice out there in the CZcams art world. I also love birds and nature.
Lovely vibrant painting! 🙂👍
Thanks, WW! That prairie was soooo much more vivid in person. Just amazing.
