SUNFLOWER FUN - Yupo

SUNFLOWER FUN
Watercolor on Yupo - 11x17

I painted SUNFLOWER FUN on yupo paper and used oil pastel to draw it on. The pastel acts as a resist to the watercolor paints and allows for a little more control while painting on the slick surface.

ISLAND HIBISCUS

ISLAND HIBISCUS
Watercolor - 11x14

Sometimes I like to paint a border around my main subject, in this case the two hibiscus. I allowed some of the leaves and petals to overlap the border and used plastic wrap on wet paint to create the fun texture.

One of my favorite fall activities is to go apple picking in the beautiful mountains of North Carolina. Having the grandkids come along is just icing on the cake!
