Flowers in Round Red Vase
4x6 mixed media on paper done today, an imaginary floral still life of acrylics over alcohol inks. The ink version was too abstract so the flower idea was done with a mixed gray on right side for the background and left side is inks as is the red vase.

Bay Foal
5x9 watercolor on Canson 140 lb cold press paper done today as an animal/wildlife forum WetCanvas challenge. I love the fuzzy mane this little fellow has and soft hair so I did an abstract background behind.
