Berry Pickers SOLD


I was anxious to use the technique i did in the workshop w the background circles, etc.. i drew this image from an old farm magazine I had from the 70's. I'm pretty sure this Amish couple had milk in their pails in the photo, but I loved the way she was "helping him out of the bush" so i put blueberries in the pails........
it was fun to paint.
Awarded 2nd place in Watercolor at Pekin Art Show 2010. It also SOLD in Pekin...

Lucyville SOLD


Another painting 'saved' from Lucy's garbage pile.. She said she started it in a workshop in the 80's after a trip to Germany.. I had a great time reconstructing the buildings and adding a lot of color.. what fun!!!  2nd photo of revisited and cropped painting.
