These five drawings are part of a series of drawings I made called the Burned Forest in Winter. They are about the visual aspect of the cycle of fire and recovery. The drawings cover a seven-mile loop trail I explored on cross country-skis near the Pacific Crest Trail.
The Mountain Drawings
These ten drawings are part of a series of drawings I made from high-elevation areas in the Cascades and from the desert skies between Hart Mountain and Steens Mountain. They are primarily about the processes of weather and glaciation. I prefer the directness of execution that pastels offer me.
