A little watercolor from this morning, while hanging out at my favorite coffee haunt.
I used the Iron Triad plus black and white.

Spent some time in Ashland, Washburn and Bayfield, Wisconsin yesterday. Freezing mist covering the trees, beautiful gloom.

Abstract photograph by artist Mindy Wara in vivid pink, orange, blue, and purple tones with layered organic shapes and light reflections, overlaid with the quote “There’s beauty to be found in the ordinary if you go looking for it.”
There’s beauty to be found in the ordinary if you go looking for it - and right now, we could all use it. 💙

Got some painting done this weekend. Finished up some small landscapes.
Both: Sax-Zim Bog, 3 x7 oil on birch panels. Purchased some vintage frames back in early November and cut these panels to fit.

Applying Gesso to birch panels, no petroleum/plastic/acrylic! This is not an acrylic “gesso.” It’s the real thing: hide glue and whiting (calcium carbonate). I have been using it for over 2 years

Turbulent Necrosis. Ink and watercolor, 2025. An expressive collage with hidden images within, featuring eyes, a bird, a skull, a tree, and various other shapes.
:u//BWAK_. Ink and watercolor, 2025. A robotic figure with multiple arms and black tendrils lashing about. Lots of square patterns used throughout.
Honored to share that my pieces, Turbulent Necrosis and :u//BWAK_, were accepted into Wustum Art Musuem's "Watercolor Wisconsin 2025" show. In addition, Turbulent Necrosis was the recipient of the Second Award.
Both pieces will be on display from Dec. 10th, 2025 - Apr. 18th, 2026.

Any guesses for who will occupy the top right corner?
