I collected grape leaves from our family farm and used them to make initial marks on watercolour paper. I also embellished with rice paper and some gold leaf.
The Winery offers a great location not only to enjoy great wine, but art as well. Enjoy!

Glacier Sun Winery and Tasting Room, Kalispell MT
If you're not out enjoying all that winter has to offer here in Montana, stop by the Glacier Sun Winery in Kalispell MT. I have several canvas giclee's showing in the wine tasting room, located in the Apple Barrel Country Market.

There is Work to Be Done!
My Freezer is Full of Leaves.....
This is the time of the year where I get busy using leaves that I collected this past summer and fall. It's and exciting time creating new art pieces. The results are always different when using a frozen leaf vs a fresh one. I discovered years ago that if I was going to use leaves for "Mark Making" in Montana, I had better figure out a way to preserve them for use in the winter. My husband knows we have little meat in our freezer, and yet he still loves me....
Fresh leaves collected around my Cashmere,WA studio. I will freeze some and of course, and I have to try some mark making with a few fresh samples.

The Freezer is full for the season and that means I need to get to work....
