Rock Arizona

2.5x4 acrylics hand painted Arizona cactus landscape on a rock done last month. I enjoy doing these 3D rock scenes and subjects and they make an unusual canvas. COPYRIGHT Kay Smith

Barn Owl in Brusho and Ink

8.5x5.5 mixed media using black Brusho crystals, watercolor, and black Winsor Newton fine liner 0.1 pen done last month in mixed media sketchbook. Just another imaginary owl painting that was fun to create. COPYRIGHT Kay Smith 2025

Rock Prickly Pear

4x3 acrylics on flat rock done last month, another 3D art creation featuring cactus on rocks and in landscapes. I enjoyed this close up of a prickly pear with its spikes or thorns. COPYRIGHT Kay Smith 2025

Yellow Poppy

6x6 watercolor using White Nights paints along with sepia fineliner 0.3 pen by Winsor Newton in sketchbook 80 lb paper. Done last month for another online WetCanvas challenge, I liked the cheerful air this yellow poppy has about it. COPYRIGHT Kay Smith 2025

Rock Barn Owl

3x3 acrylics on a smooth round river rock painted last month, another in my series of art on 3D objects. The barn owl idea was too interesting so had to get it done. COPYRIGHT Kay Smith 2025

Santa in White Hat

8.5x5.5 watercolor on sketchbook page 80 lb, painted last month during another online challenge (WetCanvas). I enjoyed the white Santa suit this figurine was wearing so had to paint it. This was using Master's Touch mixed media sketchbook. COPYRIGHT Kay Smith 2025

No Fly Zone

15x22 watercolor on Lanaquarelle 140 lb hot press paper, drawn and painted on one of our famous 90 degrees F days, with no snow in sight. This was taken at my friend Carole's in east Texas and earned a point for me with the Western Federation of Watercolor Societies. These sparrows and one goldfinch were trying to keep warm and their frozen birdbath is behind them. I used Coastal Fog, Coffee with Cream, Brown Derby, Sepia, UB, QBO, permanent rose, and wet the back only. COPYRIGHT Kay Smith 2025
