Dry Desert Icons

30x22 watercolor on Kilimanjaro 140 lb cold press paper painted earlier in the month. I have painted this southwest landscape mission more than once and in different ways. Seagulls in acrylic are on the reverse side. With the imaginary saguaro cactus flanking the tall mission bell tower, the bottom part beckons you to come on inside. COPYRIGHT 2024 Kay Smith

Old Mission with Statue

30x22 watercolor of a California mission and statue of St. Francis I fell in love with and painted.  This is a direct application painting wet in wet on 140 lb cold press paper.
