"Marking the Way," framed 5x8 inch watercolor and ink painting on paper

Cairns are some of my favorite trail features. They lead the way above treeline, sometimes look like figures or strange creatures in the fog, and stand out against the mountain landscape. This small, low cairn was a little less conspicuous, but helpful nonetheless as I followed the long loop of the Baldface Circle Trail in the White Mountain National Forest.

All paintings framed with glass are packed and shipped with the utmost care. First, a layer of foam-core is affixed over the front of the piece. Multiple layers of bubble wrap surround the entire painting before the it is sealed in a sturdy box. I mark the package as fragile and make sure my shipper is aware of the delicate contents.
