These lilies were so red I was challenged to paint them without color! I love to simplify with just the black watercolors...I have actually touched up some highlights with the white watercolor...more to come....22x30" ....22x22...watercolor on paper
The little frog pond always entertains me... I love the frogs...and it is really funny when they sit like this next to the old stone frog fountain (which is not hooked up yet to the water, almost)...friends forever...
I painted this watercolor on the Island this past weekend as a demonstration....in the rain....wet on wet...it was a real challenge...outside the Island Bound Bookstore on Saturday morning a small gathering of hearty souls...the wind blew the rain came down and I painted these beautiful flowers fresh from the farmer's market...and of course...the Carol Jean...our most favorite ferry...it was a bit tricky when the rain started to wash away the paint(there was a small funny tent we huddled under) ...but it just made me have to paint with MORE conviction and love...a great time! watercolor and gouache on 140lb hot pressed paper 22x30"
