Daily Reminder's of Nature's Vastness
tinyExpanse paintings are a daily practice of meditation and contemplation through visual journaling. Since her first one in 2008, Rachel has painted over 4,000 of these little works, including three year-long daily painting collections. Currently I am working on my fourth year, to be completed in November 2020. These on-site paintings are a reminder that beauty is available everywhere, you just have to pay attention!
Visit tinyExpanse on Etsy to view and purchase available inventory.
One of the sweetest things someone has said about tinyExpanse: "Her ability to capture the essence of an expansive landscape on such a small canvas is like a haiku in oil."

Plein Air Process
Plein Air painting in the Boise Foothills.
I love to rise before the sun comes up and head out with my paints in time for the first light. In the winter, I stuff a hot water bottle into my coat to keep warm. I work wet-on-wet, or "alla prima," meaning that I complete a painting in one sitting and don't go back and rework details. For me this is in harmony with my focus on immediacy - experiencing and expressing a specific moment in a specific place. Plein Air painting is the foundation for the larger works I complete back in the studio. Read more about my Plein Air process on my blog.
