New Work March & April 2021

New work in March & April 2021

Warm, spring weather in March and April found me outdoors painting. It was an especially wet spring but didn’t dampen spirits at the Plein Air on the White event held in Cotter, AR by the White River Artists. One of my paintings “White River Overlook” received an honorable mention.

New work in September & October, 2020

Maybe due to wet weather and a few cold nights in September and October, the Ozarks displayed a full palette of spectacular, wild color! I painted plein air some in September. And then, quarantined for four weeks, I painted largely in my studio. Some color-fall paintings are in the works yet this year, after recent hikes for reference. In the meantime, my best wishes to you for healthy, outdoor adventuring and for sweet times of gratitude for and with family in the coming weeks.

Thanks for viewing my new paintings. View all of my work for sale at my online storefront/gallery www.kathealtazan.com.

New work in July & August, 2020

While still close to home in July and August, 2020, I painted subjects from nearby Ozark–St. Francis National Forest. Blanchard Springs Caverns in Mountain View, AR are an alive and active, wonder-filled place to observe the timeless power of flowing water, to be humbled by naturally occurring rock formations, and to experience our Creator. A place to rest, to feel centered and calm. A year round spring gushes from the base of the mountain called Blanchard Springs also home to the caverns. The spring is known as the headwaters for beautiful Mill Creek, which with the help of underground springs, creates Mirror Lake. Surging over a man-made dam it results in a spectacular waterfall. An arched stone bridge built by the CCC around 1941 spans Mill Creek. Info: EncyclopediaofArkansas.net

Closer still, bees buzzed flowers in my garden while I was reminded of traveling and seeing them growing wild along roadsides. Black Eyed Susans and Purple Coneflowers, also known as Echinacea - an herbal remedy, are perennial favorites of mine, reminders of sunny, Midwest summers.

Thank you for viewing my work. View more paintings at my online storefront/gallery www.kathealtazan.com. My best wishes to you for good, healthy, outdoor adventuring.
