Fresh off the easel! I just finished this 8x10 study for a larger work I am planning. I am calling it, "Beauty and the Beast." Any mountain lovers out there care to guess as to the reason for the title? #auroraborealis #cascademountains #landscapepainting #originalart #centraloregon #northernlights

Working out the composition for my next painting.
Me after completing a recent painting, "I hate painting rocks." Me today, "Heck ya, gonna paint a big pile of rocks."

Teddy Bear, 6"x6" oil on hardboard. The soft and fuzzy looking Teddy Bear Cholla Cactus is anything but. Densely covered with sharp spines which protect it from the harsh desert sun in the lower Colorado Desert of California. www.artpal.com/pamelabeaver... #originalart #californiadesert #teddybear

Lake Alvord, 8"x10" oil on hardboard. Normally, southeastern Oregon's Alvord Desert is bone dry. A healthy rainstorm leaves standing water to catch the colors of the sunset sky, creating an otherworldly landscape. #originalart #centraloregonartists #oilpainting #alvorddesert #greatbasin #oregon

Ruddy Turnstones feeding in the surf; these ubiquitous long-distance migrants can be found on every continent except Antartica. They get their name from their habit of flipping over stones, shells, and seaweed when foraging for food. #birds #originalart #oilpaintings

Plein air painting at Black Butte Ranch. It was a balmy 94° and I placed my easel in the sun. Oops.

Completed this one last year, "While E," 8x10 oil on hardboard. I was inspired by the tangle of color in the willow thicket. This coyote paused before ducking into the willows and using a beaver dam to cross the stream. #wildlife #coyotes #winter #originalart #centraloregonartist #oilpainting
