I traveled through valleys and over mountains to get to a place of happiness. Settled in the hot sandy Mohave Valley where heat dances and sunlight glints off swaying palm leaves, I became an artist. My lifelong education in geology has been the start of the journey I took through paths between mountains and oceans the skills I learned in drawing and painting in college gave me a chance to put my impressions of color and form as I learned to explore the world using watercolor and acrylic paints. I have many European designs in ink and watercolor, as well as southwestern scenes of deserts and mountains. I have found my happiness. I have posted a few of my favorites. I sell most of my paintings on my etsy site. https://larryzinkpainting.etsy.com
