Note from Artist:
The small waterfall is one of my favorites and I pass it almost daily on my dog walks. A year of extraordinary rainfall sent it into overdrive in Spring, attracting this special little visitor and the reason for the title! Have you ever seen an Ouzel (AKA American Dipper) swimming in a turbulent stream? These 'plain brown birds' are actually amazing underwater flyers and the cutest birds ever.Yes, they earned that name with the dip, dip, dips they do on land awaiting their next swim! They are rare visitors to this stream, so I was pleased to capture the moment.

“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.”
