Old House Garden

12x9 watercolor on Fabriano 140 lb cold press paper sketched and painted last week; this old pale yellow clapboard house sets a nice background for the blooming alliums, larkspur, lilies, etc. for a summer scene. COPYRIGHT 2023 Kay Smith

Alliums ACEO

2.5x3.5 watercolor on 140 lb cold press paper, a miniature artist card done a couple of years ago of pinkish purple alliums.  I had painted several ACEOs and sold some but not this one.  Small works are just as demanding as the larger ones are, maybe more.

Alliums - ACEO

2.5x3.5 watercolor on 140 lb cold press paper, another art card or ACEO (Artist Cards Editions & Originals) otherwise known as miniature paintings. It was done this afternoon featuring purple-pink globe blossoms and green background and foreground.  These tall beauties can get very large blooms and are growing down the street.  I did plant them once at the studio but they did not come up.
