Fun Fish SOLD

I have been ignoring my watercolor palette lately so i decided to paint this on a scrap of w/c paper torn off a failed painting.  I started to do " wet on wet" and the colors turned out so beautiful, i quit.  don't think i'll do a background.

Winter parking ( demo done @ cormorant show ) Donated to Village

I had sketched this truck and house before I got to the show and painted the sky and truck, while visiting with interested art patrons.  When I got home and "looked" @ it..it turned into a winter scene.. it's done in watercolor. .

Boy's and Girl's 7-18 Sold in Langdon

This acrylic painting was a whim, sky color on the bottom? Pallette knife scrapping thru the middle? Then hung out the laundry! ! What fun I had!!

"DINE" or "eat" Wedding gift

I've wanted to paint an outdoor cafe scene for a long time.  I've looked at hundreds of them in my hundreds of art magazines.. but made up my own street and folks. Love the waiters w their bow ties.

Bird condos Gifted to Brita

Just had to paint Carl's birdhouses that I have hung on the back of the house..I sketched them in the morning sun..I didn't put in the bricks, mostly because I enjoy painting old siding better.. each one has a story, of course .

"Waiting for spring in Alaska " Donated to Pekin Auction..

As usual, after a workshop, I try to redo or "save" a work..this is the only one out of 5 that was a possibility.  It was a value study on a 1/2 sheet (huge) done with Payne's Grey. I tore it in half and added a lot of color. Reference photo, I took in AK, was of  this big boat deserted in the wilderness.. I added what may be ice or water to the foreground..
