I have always been inspired by fall colors, the green that surrounds me here in Oregon and the symmetry of the old Pendleton blankets.

The stripes of Round-Up remind me of evening rodeos, the green of Oregon and the sunsets and scrub brush of my childhood in Texas.

The luxurious, light airiness of Oregon snow on twisting dark branches inspired Branches.
