Paint-Out

This painting started out up-side-down...just getting rid of excess paint on the palette.  When I turned it right-side up, it looked like a hydrangea in a yellow vase to me.  Rarely do my paint-outs look like anything,

Neutrals

I have been practicing painting neutral colors.  I love painting spools of thread...especially the old wooden ones.

Colorful Iris

I wish I could remember the name of this beautiful, colorful Iris.  Deep, rich, gorgeous colors.

Artichokes

This was an assignment in Shirley Horachek's watercolor class.  I like the way this turned out.  It doesn't always happen that way.   

Juicy cyclamen

Bovine Silhouettes

I had my camera with me in the car one day when I came upon this scene driving home from somewhere.  I drove past it thinking what a pretty image it was.  Decided to drive back and take the photo.  Glad I did.

American Goldfinches

The finches love the seed in this sock.
