Olympia artist Kathy Gore-Fuss captures the essence of our native forests in her beautiful and evocative paintings. Kathy is a pleine-aire painter who has set up her easel in many of our forested city parks--where grand old trees and a rich and tangled understory beckon.  These photos were taken at her recent studio show. Check out her portfolio here.

Enjoy this song by Peter Horne, "Little Bird, Little Boat, Big Ocean.” Written about the Marbled Murrelet, but the lyrics work well for the Pigeon Guillemot, too.
