Phone Home

Phone Home is a watercolor of telephone poles and a rail crossing against a far horizon. I painted this during Inktober at Art Spot, Edmonds in 2017, trying to work out the perspective of vanishing points going two different directions. I always have fun splashing bright colors with water paints and this one made me happy.” Baechler has traveled the West extensively during careers in construction, journalism, marketing and manufacturing.
