"Junco on a Cairn," original watercolor and gouache on paper landscape painting, framed (SOLD)

By now you know I love cairns (if you don't, you haven't seen my whole series of six mini cairn paintings and other bigger works in which they are featured!). And this piece, too, was inspired by the humble stacks of rocks that mark the way above treeline. The best is when there's a tiny bird perched atop the cairn, assuring you that if a tough little junco like this can make it here, so can you.
