Painted myself the same way I paint Montana: layered, weathered, and a little wild around the edges.

You can guide watercolor, but you can’t completely control it.
Kind of like life lately. 🎨

This watercolor and ink piece was inspired by the balsamroot blooms that light up western Montana each year, glowing beneath pine trees and mountain skies like little pockets of sunshine.

Loose lines, layered washes, and a tribute to the place I call home.

So happy to be able to document this important hearing in Great Falls this week. The amount of support from his community who showed up says something about this man.
