SWEET NATURE

 

SWEET NATURE
Watercolor - 11x14

SWEET NATURE Has softly painted white flowers floating among the leaves with some delicate rice paper collage on for some subtle texture.

This painting measures 11x14 inches and is sold unmatted but will fit easily in a standard 11x14 frame or 16x20 mat and frame. This painting is an ORIGINAL watercolor hand painted and signed on 140# archival watercolor paper. I try to keep my prices low to ensure that everyone can enjoy original fine art.

One of my favorite things to do in the fall is to pick apples and if the grandchildren are along for the fun, even better!




ASPEN BLUE & Lake Living

ASPEN BLUE
Watercolor - 11x14

Here is a mountain stream and some snow to cool you off on this hot summer day! We lived in Colorado for a total of twenty eight years as our kids were growing up and while I loved the beautiful mountains and winter snows I am now very happy to enjoy our retirement years on a lake in Tennessee!





Beome an Artist

SHADES OF PEACH
Watercolor - 11x14

Art has always been a part of my life, ever since I was a child and I was lucky to have parents that encouraged me.

I meet a lot of people who say that they would like to become an artist but are not sure how to begin..

My advice to them is to:

    Start today, take one small step and don't keep putting it off.
    Sign up for a beginning art class
    Join a community of other artists, it helps to have the support of other creative people
    Find a small space or table  in your home where you can set out your art supplies & create
    Carve out time to practice, you are worth the commitment
    Be gentle with yourself. This is a lifetime creative journey to savor & enjoy!
  
 

ROSES & Summertime

 

ROSES
Watercolor - 11x14

Summer seems to be flying by, I can't believe August is almost here! 

I love painting roses, especially when I can take a loose approach to their perfect forms. I began this painting with wet paper and a random application of pastel colors for the background. When everything was dry, I used negative painting to create the overall shape of the roses and their individual petals. A few leaves and some stems were added for the final touches.
