Purple Blackeyed Susan
7x5 watercolor and ink using Winsor Newton 0.1 black fine liner pen and white gel pen, another take on the blackeyed susan art I've been creating off and on. This one is in purple hues for amethyst in February and was gifted to my cousin for her birthday this month.

Happy Valentine's Day ~ recipe for romance
15x11 watercolor previously with Valentine's Day in mind. After drawing in all the elements of wine glasses, rose and leaves, I painted wet on dry. When finished, I took an old red paper heart stencil and painted its holes in heart patterns to provide detail at the bottom foreground.
