Sage Mist Layers

91-year-old watercolor artist and poet. Pigment and sage butter settling like morning mist over Missoula trails, Coltrane notes rising slow.

The soil under my boots holds the quiet layers—Georgia O'Keeffe's desert hush and the scent of rain on huckleberry bushes. Painted these soft greens at dawn, letting the watercolors drift like jazz.

Work feels right when the pigment dries like fresh earth after golden hour.
