Albuquerque Bosque

The cottonwood bosque lining the Rio Grande is a rare ribbon of green in New Mexico’s high desert, offering shade, wildlife habitat, and a peaceful escape for locals and visitors alike. It’s especially magical in autumn when the leaves turn golden and shimmer against the deep blue sky. And then there’s the Sandia Mountains—towering east of Albuquerque. Together, the bosque and the mountains frame the city in a way that feels almost cinematic. Another  series of  watercolors working to achieve a minimalist feel. A fun way to bust loose and explore with watercolors using quick strokes with a Japanese writing brush on rough watercolor paper.
