Old Faucet with Sunflowers

11x12.5 watercolor on Kilimanjaro 140 lb cold press paper; Daniel Smith paints. This is an imaginary country still life with the vivid sunflowers, old rusty hydrant faucet and weathered wood barn wall behind. COPYRIGHT Kay Smith 2025

Faucet Cat

5.5x8 mixed media on paper in Strathmore Visual Journal for mixed media.  Starting with a black Tombow brush pen I lightly sketched in outlines of the cat's head, faucet, and water stream.  Watercolor was added last to pull the composition together including reflections in the metal.

Faucet Cat

5.5x8 mixed media on paper done today in Strathmore Visual Journal for mixed media.  Starting with a black Tombow brush pen I lightly sketched in outlines of the cat's head, faucet, and water stream.  Watercolor was added last to pull the composition together including reflections in the metal.

Kitchen Kat

15x22 on Arches hot press 140 lb paper of a calico cat watching water go down her owner's kitchen sink. I painted this several years back and my customer had me reframe in different colored mats and moulding. I did not have a quality photo of it so thought I'd share with you. When doing this one I tried for a very abstract quality yet recognizable composition.
