December snow scene

15x22 watercolor imaginary landscape with snow I painted about 2 years ago, then it was selected as a card design by a major company. From its frozen stream to the cold grey skies here's hoping your December is a grand one!

Snow Bunker landscape

22x30 watercolor, acrylic, torn brown paper packing material and golf scenes collage on 300 lb Saunders wc paper.  This mixed media collage was painted in a group paint out in a neighboring town near their golf course.

Beverly - mixed media figure

22x15 charcoal drawn figure on 140 lb hot press Fabriano paper with gouache paint and Caran D'Ache crayon accents.  Paper was prepared by adhering old phone book pages with half matte medium and half water then pulling off leaving parts of the Fabriano visible.
This woman was at a neighborhood hat party and had her eyes closed while talking.  Background elements are imaginary abstractions.

November

11x15 watercolor of a cold November day in the country landscape.  Since the month is almost over it was time to post this scene preparing for colder days ahead.

Partial to Red Poinsettias

15x20 watercolor on the back of an old dog that wasn't worth trying to make better.  I spritzed water then threw paint loosely with 1" brush in wide areas using NO PENCIL.  Let dry, then began to carve out red, pink, and all shades in between of poinsettia leaves with green at bottom of potted plant.  Background is neutral with UB, Coastal Fog mix and some Periwinkle Blue (American Journey) colors.

Winter Wolves

20x16 watercolor on Arches 140 lb cold press paper, Daniel Smith paints.  In this wintry imaginary scene, three wolves gather to plan their next activity within the snow covered trees and brush.

Flower Market

Flower merchants line up with their lovely wares while other vendors peruse this open air market in South America.  This 22x15 watercolor depicts their daily life amongst vivid hues of gladiolas and lilies.
