Sandpiper Shuffle


Sandpipers shuffle back and forth from shore to surf, following the ebb and flow of the tide, searching for tasty tidbits. I enjoyed painting this typical northwest shore scene. Gaylen Whiteman.

Framed Giclee Print, Canvas Giclee Print and cards now available.

Partner's for Life


This pair of Eagles landed in a tree outside my front door. The larger male landed first, and his mate flew to a position just below him. She seemed to lean into him for comfort. They remained in this pose together on the same tree branch for at least ten minutes. I’m sure they were a mating pair - Partner’s for Life. Gaylen Whiteman.

Original and cards available.

Daylily Reflections


An early morning rain had left my daylilies drenched. Looking at them through my window, I could almost feel the wetness of the water droplets. I’ve tried to capture that feeling in this painting. Gaylen Whiteman.

Original & Cards now available.

Coopers Folly




This Coopers' Hawk was caught in bird netting in our vineyard. He was quite frantic - flipping and spinning in the dirt, desperately trying to free himself but succeeding only in entangling his talons further. My father-in-law and I freed him and he eagerly took to the sky unharmed and intact. I took several photos of the 'rescue' and later painted this watercolor in my studio. The original is already SOLD. Archival giclee prints and cards are available. A Framed giclee is on display for sale for $135 during the month of February at the Gratitude Giclee Show at Bayview, Whidbey Island.
