Note from the Artist:Many never understand why these secretive birds are called Orange-crowned Warblers (Pacific). Their orange crowns hold just a hint of the color, at best. Hard to spot (at least for me!), with none of the usual bold or flashy markings of their other Warbler cousins, their yellow-green and gray coloring blends into oak woodlands, even in the Pacific, where they are brighter than in the East. But their cascading trills ring out from every direction during mating season. Only with luck and patience can you discover their cleverly hidden nests, tucked under rock ledges or logs, behind a curtain of ferns amongst the moss. These two are anticipating their five new chicks with a small gift

“As an artist who deeply appreciates detail, I always strive for simplicity. I find that I often land somewhere in between, hopefully capturing the essence of the scene, flower, or creature at the heart of the work. I enjoy drilling down into my subjects and learning from each experience, and my goal is to pass on that same sense of discovery and wonder through every piece I create.”
