Petticoats - Mexican Redhat Wildflowers
11x8.5 watercolor and ink on paper of wildflowers growing in our vacant lot. Commonly known as Mexican red hats, these have so much character and different form and colors; their petals resemble petticoats. From dark red to a red-orange, their vibrant saucy pigment dot the landscape, often growing in clumps. This ink and line wash is my 3rd piece featuring their lively design.

Union Street House
12x9 watercolor and ink (Pigma Micron 01 pen) done on accounting paper, a sketch done for Sketchbook Skool, on location for Polishing course several years ago. This old white stucco house is on Union Street here in town and has been abandoned many years. I loved the old crumbling roof shingles above the rusty screen door. A few days ago I drove past there and it has further deteriorated.
