Finished getting in the details. Now it's just varnishing and leaving them places to brighten someone's day. #gnomes #gardenart #paintedrocks #rockpainting #pourpainting #owls #blueskyart

Yesterday's gnome pour session (with a couple owls). Will start adding details. Watch the creation on twitch: www.twitch.tv/videos/27682... #gnomes #fantasyart #owls #twitch #rockpainting #paintedrocks

In 2022, I visited this abandoned Japanese Garden in Dallas, OR. I read they restored it and headed out. Before and after pics. "Just goes to show what a little faith can do." #japanesegarden #garden #oregon #dallasoregon #zen

Finished adding details to the gnomes and owls. I'll varnish them tomorrow, then start leaving them places. #paintedrocks #rockpainting #gnomes #owls #gardenart #pourpainting

This is an acrylic painting I did in 2016, "Walking Through The Oak Trees On A Sunny Day". From a trail I used to walk when I lived in California. #BlueSkyArtShow #ShadowPlay #california #blueskyart #landscape #oaktrees #originalpainting

Got a great start yesterday on gnome and owl painted river rocks. This was the result of the pour painting session. I'll add details when they dry. You can watch the process on twitch: www.twitch.tv/videos/27618... #paintedrocks #rockpainting #gnomes

Finished these 4 gnomes. I painted all the hats and sleeves from a cup of pour paint, then did the details today. JIC there's someone out there hoping I post more gnomes today :-). #gnomes #rockpainting #paintedrocks #gardenart #blueskyart

Got my gnome fix today. Yesterday, I used pour paint for the hats and sleeves. Today, I painted the rest with acrylics, then used an acrylic marker for the outlines. #rockpainting #paintedrocks #gnomes #fantasyart #gardenart

Got another little gnome rock done today on a Willamette river rock. His nose is mostly the natural rock color. #gnome #gardenart #paintedrocks #rockpainting #fantasyart

Another little gnome, which I'll leave to put a smile on someone's face :-). #rockpainting #paintedrocks #gnomes #fantasyart #gardenart #blueskyart

After more than a month, I finally got back out to the studio and did a pour seascape. I used the leftover paint to start some gnome painted rocks, and an owl :-). Watch the livestream replay at www.twitch.tv/videos/27417...

Got a few more gnomes done. I need to find more rocks! #paintedrocks #rockpainting #gnomes #gardenart #gardengnome #originalpainting #fantasyart

My first attempt at a gnome rock. I really like it and will do as many as I can find suitably shaped rocks. Acrylic marker. #paintedrocks #gnome #gardengnome #gardenart #rockpainting

My last pour session involved 2 canvases pressed together. I only have room for one in a more sheltered spot to dry. I put the seascape there. So, of course, it's the one a bug landed on. I think it will be OK once it dries. You can watch me paint these on twitch: www.twitch.tv/videos/26970...

This morning is overcast but here is a view from my early morning walk yesterday, taken at the wetlands around the corner from me.

I put a barred owl on this pour painting of a moonlit woodland as the finishing touch. I hear them sometimes, just before it gets light in the morning. Original 12x16 and prints at zenbreeze.com/collections/... #owl #pourpainting #woodland #forest #wallartforsale #blueskyart #pacificnorthwest
