Porch Scene with Cat

15x22 watercolor, another imaginary porch scene with shutters, white wicker and potted daisies and geraniums not to mention the lovely kitty relaxing on the cushions.  An underpainting was done first, allowed to dry, then design was drawn, with a stencil stamp of old cardboard used to make a woven wicker pattern.

Pleasures of the Porch

15x22 watercolor on Italia 140 lb cold press paper, Daniel Smith paints of an old southern style wrap around porch I found on a trip to Mississippi years ago.  Wish I had the house, porch and lovely garden!
