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. COPYRIGHT Kay Smith 2026

Mixed Mess

8.5x11.5 mixed media using acrylics, collage, etc., on paper. This imaginary concoction can be anyone's guess with its abstraction and energy. I created this in February. COPYRIGHT Kay Smith

Prairie Wind Cowboy

6x6 watercolor in sketchbook done last week; it is on 80 lb paper in Master's Touch. I've used four different brown pigments including new Schmincke color of Desert Brown that granulates in this imaginary scene. This guy is watching the turbulent prairie sky and clouds. COPYRIGHT Kay Smith 2026

Bed of Roses Kitten

15x11 watercolor using White Nights paints on 140 lb cold press paper done a few weeks ago. Using an earlier photo I took when Salty was a kitten, I quickly sketched her relaxing pose by the silk rose pillow. She is all white but for a splotch of dark grey on her head and pale grey at tip of her tail. Those yellow eyes are mesmerizing. COPYRIGHT Kay Smith 2026
