Product Details
Our luxuriously soft blankets are available in two different sizes and feature incredible artwork on the top surface. The bottom surface is white. Our 100% polyester blankets are available in two different styles: plush fleece and sherpa fleece. Plush fleece blankets are soft and fluffy on both sides, whereas sherpa blankets are smooth like a soft sweater on the artwork side (i.e. shorter threads) which provides for a sharper image. Looking for a recommendation? Go with a 60" x 80" plush fleece blanket. It's soft and luxurious on both sides... the artwork looks incredible... and the size is just right for everyone.

This is my watercolor painting of a tunnel in the small town of Newcastle, California. On an outing last year in Newcastle, I was looking for something different to paint other than the usual Packing Shed and Town Square area. I decided the vehicle tunnel with the railroad tracks on top was non-typical art subject but yet it is a key landmark in the area to residents.

To build the 531’ tunnel, workers had to cut through nearly solid rock, a great engineering feat of the day. The tunnel was finished in 1932. It helped shorten the route through town and reduced the grade by 74-feet. The Newcastle Tunnel was part of old Highway 40 until the 1960’s when Interstate 80 freeway was developed nearby. Old Highway 40 is known today as Taylor Road.
This 12” x 16” watercolor was done on Fluid 100, 140 lb, cold press paper.
My search to find my biological family was the genesis of my journey into the world of art. When I finally found my birth family, at the age of 40, I was plunged into a new and very different family. On one occasion while talking with the father I had never known, I discovered that my great uncle was the renowned watercolorist Dong Kingman. Fatefully discovering a cheap watercolor paint set, and intrigued by my relationship with Kingman, I wondered if I had inherited any of his talent. This lingering question spurred me into trying to paint. My first challenge was deciding what subjects I would paint. As a fan of Van Gogh, and knowing that he painted images from his day to day life: houses, fields, people working, I decided to do the...
