Pacific Northwest Mugs

In this somber, Holga style, black and white photograph, the stump of a tree stands atop Johnston's Ridge like a ghostly of Mount St. Helens' eruption. Two tiny seedlings grow along side the dead stump, joining it in watchful vigil over the valleys and mountains surrounding Mount St. Helens.

Beneath a cloudy pacific northwest sky, paintbrush wildflowers on Johnston's Ridge surround the stump of a tree that was shattered during Mount Saint Helens eruption. Off in the distance, several other mountains are still covered in fallen dead trees amongst the regrowth of the forest.

Fox creek rounds a bend, passing groups of trees bathes in sunlight and shadow, heading towards the Columbia River. Wintry sunlight shimmers on the cold water between the glowing snow-covered bank of the creek while logs rocks and tufts of grass create points of interest along the way.

This moody photo with ominous grey clouds, taken from Johnston's Ridge, shows the destructive force of Mount St Helens' 1980 eruption. Downed evergreen trunks litter the mountainsides where they were exposed to the brunt of the volcanic blast, while even in more sheltered areas dead gray trunks stand as reminders of the beautiful forest that once covered these cascade mountains. Throughout the scene nature recovers in vigorous shades of green with a new generation of young trees scattered sparsely on the slopes.

Fox creek flows through a snowy Oregon Forest, headed towards the Columbia River.Snow covered logs and branches, jut out into the icy water, while the winter sunlight glows on the snowy creek banks.

Snow covered ferns grow in the moss covering a uniquely shaped tree in front of a forest glowing with morning sunlight in Rainier, Oregon.

Looking up a steep snow covered hill in Rainier, Oregon the crystal clear early morning sky is seen through a break in the trees.

The foggy Oregon forest glows with the beauty of the early morning sun lighting up the misty sky.

A cold winters day hike through the snow towards Fox Creek in Rainier, Oregon reveals a pale blue winter sky seen through a stand of trees near the edge of a forest glade on the bottom of a sloping hill. Still attached to twigs and brambles autumn leaves appear golden in the sun like trail markers bordering a snowy path zig zagging across the hills an into the distance.

This moody oval photo with ominous grey clouds, taken from Johnston's Ridge, shows the destructive force of Mount St Helens' 1980 eruption. Downed evergreen trunks litter the mountainsides where they were exposed to the brunt of the volcanic blast, while even in more sheltered areas dead gray trunks stand as reminders of the beautiful forest that once covered these cascade mountains. Throughout the scene nature recovers in vigorous shades of green with a new generation of young trees scattered sparsely on the slopes.

A Masonic lodge and a church steeple topped with a little white cross are seen nestled in the snow covered forested hills of Rainier, Oregon as brilliant morning light begins to beam through clouds above the mountain ranges looking towards Mount St Helens (which is obscured by the cloud cover).

Layers of lavender purple and pink clouds glow in the dawn light as the sun rises over the Columbia River in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. A white Masonic Lodge nestles next to a church among the shadowy trees of the Rainier, Oregon forest as the Columbia river flows past the city lights of Kelso and Longview, Washington twinkling against the dark backdrop of the mountains ranges beyond.

The Mushroom is a black and white photographic art print of a mushroom. I was hiking one day in a forest near Issaquah, Washington when I spotted this mushroom peeking out from the undergrowth. I took a number of shots to get just the right angle. I am really pleased with how this turned out.

The morning sun shining through the forest creates spectacular lighting effects. Lens flare and light orbs floating in the air with sun rays shining visibly through the trees produce an ethereal glow in the Rainier, Oregon woods.

Sketched West Point Lighthouse is an art print I created sketching with colored pencils. This technique focuses on bold pencil strokes, bright colors and defined shapes. The setting is the West Point Lighthouse that sits on a piece of land that juts out into the Puget Sound and marks the northern end of Elliot Bay which lines the downtown waterfront of Seattle.

The Tracks Through the Trees is an art print I created using a pointillism watercolor technique. This technique uses round dots for brush strokes and subdued colors creating a soft, warm look. This particular print depicts railroad tracks running along a row of fall colored trees. The setting is Issaquah, Washington located in the foothills of the Cascade Mountain range to the east of Seattle.

The Seattle Rainiers, originally named the Seattle Indians and also known as the Seattle Angels, were a Minor League Baseball team in Seattle, Washington, that played in the Pacific Coast League from 1903 to 1906 and 1919 to 1968. They were initially named for the indigenous Native American population of the Pacific Northwest, and changed their name after being acquired by the Rainier Brewing Company, which was in turn named for nearby Mount Rainier.

Black and white photo of a stand of evergreens on a hill, covered with snow, in an Oregon forest. Dark tree trunks silhouetted against a blanket of white snow create a doorway into the forest as younger saplings lean towards older, more weathered trees. Sunlit snow-laden branches partially obscure groups or trees huddled together as they recede into the depths of the forest.
