'ritaville for National Margarita Day

7.5x11 watercolor, 140 lb cold press paper. I painted this while in Albuquerque in 2009. I used Winsor Newton paper and travel kit. Colors: Cadmium yellow pale, ultramarine blue, yellow ochre, cadmium yellow hue, cobalt blue, burnt sienna, cadmium red pale, sap green, burnt umber, alizarin crimson, and viridian. Since today is National Margarita Day I posted this then ordered a frozen one with lime and a rim of salt along with some hot Tex Mex food. COPYRIGHT Kay Smith

Birthday!

8.5x5.5 watercolor and ink on paper, an older work, a small still life bar drink scene complete with olives, cocktail napkin, and colorful shapes in the background.  Now it has been maybe 30 years since I had a martini but with a birthday coming up on the 23rd I just might.  For old times sake.  For art's sake.  For just being old's sake, lol!
