Brush Creek Fence
Brush Creek Fence, watercolor, 8×6″, 2019 copyrighted with all rights reserved by Jean Krueger Looking north in the late afternoon sun the fence posts march into the autumn pasture bleached by summer sun now departed. This is painted using three colors, alizarin crimson , yellow ochre and ultramarine. These pigments are then mixed to create the other colors of the painting. John Singer Sargent, American painter, used this color pallet to great effect.

Backyard Looking West
Backyard Looking West, oil on card, 8×10″, 2019 copyrighted with all rights reserved by Jean Krueger Our cabin is backstopped by the foothills of the Sangre de Cristo mountain range. I have to look up at a really steep angle to see the sky. When I look straight out from the front porch all I see in ascending earth covered with trees and brush….pretty nice.

Gambel Oak – Quercus gambelii
Gambel Oak – Quercus gambelii, 14×11″, watercolor, 2019 copyrighted with all rights reserved by Jean Kryueger The oaks are starting to change colors here in the Colorado montane. The colors will be in the yellow/brown range this year due to the conditions that prevailed around here last summer.

Wild Apples
Wild Apples, watercolor, 9×12″, 2019 copyrighted with all rights reserved by Jean Krueger There’s and old, old apple tree at the Comanche Venable trailhead in Colorado. No one tends it now but the browsing deer. It’s grown scraggely and wide as the years pass. In spring its whitepink blooms billow in the montane sun. By September the fruit finally ripens to a sour, wormy greenred, hard and plump, abundant til they freeze and fall in the darkening days of autumn. The tree is a touchstone within my Rocky Mountain life.
