Rogue Valley

When we moved to Ashland 14 years ago I was transported to a whole new landscape with 4 seasons and green everywhere. Plein air was challenging in winter cold and summer heat but the terrain was irresistible. Many were done at Pat Holton’s studio a few miles out of Ashland in the foothills of the Cascades. Pat is a good friend and a printmaker who is also a fine encaustic creator and watercolorist, and I have a creation in each of these media on my walls
