No. 57

No 57 / Empty 
Watercolor, 7" x 5" 



This month I have gotten lots of practice drawing ovals, observing light, and painting woodgrain. Have you ever taken a moment to sit and observe the colors reflected in an object or a sunset or the clouds? It's rather meditative. Even an empty glass can offer some interesting colors and peace of mind.

Hops. They give beer that "tangy, bitter" flavor. On my visit to Bowser Brewing Co. I asked Evan if he could part with a few of them for my painting purposes—he was kind enough to oblige. They are like little green pinecones.  Now it has me interested in the home brewing process. Are any of you home brewers?

When visiting Bowser Brewing Co in Great Falls, Montana, we got a bit of a tour of the place. One of the back walls had this glass window in it. Initially, I thought the colorful rounds were wine bottle bottoms. In fact, these beautiful handmade windows were part of the old Shakey's Pizza that once resided in the building. Evan found this one when they were doing construction in the back. There are two more windows like it located high above the bathroom doors. They work perfectly in the space with its colorful and artistic lean, while giving a bit of a nod to the past,

No. 51

No. 51 / Chocolate Covered Crunchberries
Watercolor, Paper size 12" x 9" (Image 8.25" x 5.25")

On Valentine's Day my fiance, Kyle, and I had dinner and brews at Bowser Brewing Co. in Great Falls, MT. They offer a gourmet food menu and some delicious beer. (The Strawberry Blonde is my personal fave.) For the special occasion we had the Chocolate Covered Crunchberry and played Ticket to Ride with Evan, the owner.  It would seem we like spending holidays there—we spent Thanksgiving there, too. 

In the midst of our game playing a huge group of retirees stopped in and filled the place with chatter and laughter. They had rented a limo and were doing a pub crawl! Talk about fun, right?
