Spruced up for Winter

14x10 watercolor on Kilimanjaro 140 lb cold press block, American Journey/Daniel Smith paints, done with cold weather in mind and on its way with a pale lilac sky. Bare branches peep out behind the snow laden spruce tree and the old Victorian porch in this winter landscape. COPYRIGHT Kay Smith

Autumn Mood

12x9 watercolor done last week on Canson 140 lb cold press paper, an imaginary grouping of trees and a background of multilayered fall colors. The golden hues were put in wet in wet quickly and when dry the trees stark branches, trunks, etc., were added with a script liner #1 brush in warm sepia. COPYRIGHT 2022 Kay Smith

Tree Trunks in Snow

6.5x8.25 watercolor on 140 lb cold press paper done over the weekend, a simple scene of sunlit snow surrounding bare trees and branches.  The cooler hued shadows fall over animal tracks and parts that have melted in this winter landscape.
