I love that breeze and the smell of rain right before a thunderstorm
On a camping trip to Banks Lake in Eastern Washington, the nights were so purely dark because there was zero light pollution. When the moon rose over the lake, it was similar to the sun in that it cast deep and long shadows through the trees. Even with my near eyesight I could see everything so clearly! .

A dragon rising into the morning skies! This was a mini watercolor painting that I released as a public freebie with process steps over on my Patreon recently (directory link in bio). I love using bright oranges and pinks for that bright lighting =] . . . #dragonart #dragon #sketch #watercolor #painting #sketchbook #fantasyart #art #artist #redwing #sunwing #dragonsketch #art #dailyart #smaugust #Smaugust2019

Glacier National Park is one of my favorite places to visit. The mountains reach so high into the skies, grooves carved into the rock by ancient glaciers, waterfalls tumbling down the cliff sides. I love painting it
